Retrieve_series_metadata Hangs Indefinitely Without Timeout #87

Open by3nrique opened 1 year ago

by3nrique commented 1 year ago

The retrieve_series_metadata function is exhibiting unexpected behavior where it gets stuck and does not raise a timeout exception even after waiting for an extended period (hours) . This issue occurs when attempting to retrieve metadata for a specific series using the retrieve_series_metadata function with a certain series_uid and study_uid.

To improve the context:

Although we definitely cannot rule out a bug in our end (any suggestions in this regard are welcome) the library should have a method to hang a request that takes too long.
