Interface: PatientView

Patient & study identity (§4.1 - the wrong-patient failure class).

id is not globally unique; correct cross-system matching needs the {id, issuerOfId, issuerQualifiers} tuple plus otherIds. name keeps its full PN component structure, never flattened to a string.

Example

import { parseDicom } from "@cosyte/dicom";
const p = parseDicom(buf).patient;
p.id;                       // "MRN-42" - meaningless without the issuer
p.issuerOfId;              // "HOSP_A"
p.name?.alphabetic.familyName; // "Doe"
