to bypass the normal DICOM tag value cleaning de-identification operations for which dicom_anon was primarily written.
To be used when --force_replace and --exclude_series_descs are needed, but the de-identification is being performed elsewhere (e.g., in GCP's Healthcare API) and any other pre-de-identification is for whatever reason undesired. Allows the dicom_anon framework to still be fully leveraged for these two new --force_replace and --exclude_series_descs options without creating an entirely new tool.
