. The system confirms that you have added the patient.
You will not be able to verify that the information you enter is correct. If you believe
you made a mistake, enter the information again. If an identical record is entered, it
will simply overwrite the previous one.
Once you have submitted the patient information and R2 barcode, you can scan the
case.
Important! Be careful when entering the information. This is the mechanism that
links the images to the correct patient. When viewing digitized images from an archive,
always check the patient flash to ensure the case corresponds to the desired patient.
To enter multiple studies from different dates for the same patient, you will need to
enter the studies separately using a different separator sheet (with a different R2
barcode) for each study. To avoid entering the patient data twice, use the back arrow
on your web browser to return to the patient data entry page. (The keyboard shortcut
is [Alt] + [left arrow].) At that point, you would need to change only the study date
and accession number.
