Is there any way to get LRC to print DICOM metadata underneath a photo? It is not an option in the Photo Info panel. Any other suggestions? Do I need a script? Or Maybe use Bridge and InDesign?

LR doesn't support DICOM-format images or DICOM metadata stored in image formats that LR does understand (TIFF, JPEG, etc).  If you have a TIFF or JPEG containing DICOM metadata, you could probably use the Bag-o-Goodies plugin's Write Data Field command to extract DICOM metadata into metadata fields that LR understands (e.g. Caption or Title).   You'd use the plugin's "Exiftool" token and refer to the Exiftool utility's documentation for how to refer to DICOM fields.

 

Maybe someone else can speak authoritatively to alternatives like Bridge.
