Patient Worklist
Note: Prior to querying the DICOM Worklist, check the Patient List to determine if the Patient ID must
be updated. If the Patient ID in the database does not match the Patient Worklist, the records will not
be matched, and this may adversely affect patient trending.
When the user selects Patient Worklist from the Illuminatus DICOM Services menu, the system will display
the Illuminatus DICOM Patient Worklist window.
Figure 13-6: Illuminatus DICOM Patient Worklist
The Worklist window contains several user-editable fields. In the Query Parameters area, various fields can
be edited and passed to the Worklist server as query parameters. This would help limit the data returned, if the
user knew the specific details of the patients they were searching for. If too many results are returned, you may
enter additional parameters and click Query again to refine your search.
To save the Parameters as defaults the next time the Worklist window is opened, click the Used saved
search values box. To clear the Parameters, uncheck the Used saved search values box and Close the
Patient Worklist window.
The format of the Patient Name search field is “Last Name, First Name”, and the asterisk ‘*’ can be used as a
wildcard to broaden the search. To use a single search value such as last name only, check the box Single
Word in Patient Name.
The Start Time and End Time will not be used unless the Query Time? box is checked. The values will default
to 12:00:00 AM and 11:59:59 PM when the Worklist dialog box is opened, or if the Clear button is pressed.
The Start Date and End Date will not be used unless the Query Date? box is checked. The values will default
to the current date when the Worklist dialog box is opened, or if the Clear button is pressed.
