doc_number_mrz = doc_number_field.get_value()
doc_number_visual = doc_number_field.get_value(Source.VISUAL)
doc_number_visual_validity = doc_number_field.source_validity(Source.VISUAL)
doc_number_mrz_validity = doc_number_field.source_validity(Source.MRZ)
doc_number_mrz_visual_matching = doc_number_field.cross_source_comparison(Source.MRZ, Source.VISUAL)

# images fields example
