Sending a study to a DICOM server:
There are three ways to send a study to a DICOM server. See Section 9.2.2 for details on
configuring a DICOM server and choosing one of the following options
1.
From the patient database screen, you can select a study or multi-studies and send it to a
configured server.
2.
You can configure the system to automatically send the study at the end of the exam. With
this option the study is sent in the background while you continue to use the system for the
next exam.
3.
You can configure the system to automatically send each image and clip as it is stored. This
has the advantage that the images and clips are available on the server sooner. Note that if
you have it configured this way you can still delete stored images and clips on the system,
but that will not delete them on the server if they have already been sent.
Sending a study to FTP Server
Please see section 9.2.3 for details on configuring a FTP server. Once an FTP server is configured
the exam can be sent to the server from the patient database screen. Select the exam(s) from the
list shown, and select the FTP server from the list of currently configured destinations.
Saving a study to USB or DVD
If a USB flash drive or DVD is plugged in then studies can be archived to them . Plug the device
into a USB port prior to invoking the patient database screen, select the exam(s) from the list
shown, and select the device from the list of currently configured destinations.
7.4.5. Structured Report
Structured Reports are supported for OB, Gynecology, Cardiac and Vascular exams on this
system. They can only be sent to a DICOM server together with images after the function of
sending structured report being enabled in DICOM setup page (see Section 9.2.2 for detail).
Sending structured reports to a DICOM server:
There are two ways to send structured reports to a DICOM server.
From the patient database screen, select the exam that has structured report and image,
select a configured server from the list of available destinations and send it manually. For
this way, you should first go to DICOM setup page and select "Transfer on demand" as the
DICOM store way.
Go to DICOM setup page and select "Auto-transfer when End Exam" as the DICOM store
way. The system will automatically send the structured report at the end of the exam.
