Reporting on multiple studiesTopic number: 1425414954373
You can group all relevant studies and report on all of them in a single report.
- Start a reading task that contains comparison studies for the same
patient.
Comparison studies for various procedures result from the same or different orders for the same patient. Some of them already have a report and some do not.
The text of canceled comparison studies with reports or images and discontinued comparison studies is struck through. After starting a reading task, if a comparison study is canceled, and this canceled study does not have a report or images, it disappears from the Comparison or All studies tab when the Text area is reloaded.
- In the Comparison or All studies tab, select the checkboxes of the
studies to add to your current report.
You can only add studies that are verified.
The selected studies are moved to Active studies. Their procedure details are displayed in new tabs. If the added procedures require extra report sections, they are inserted into the displayed report structure. Autofill fields are prefilled in report sections and text macros.
If a study that you are reporting on is canceled or discontinued, its text on the Active studies tab is struck through when the Text area is reloaded.
Tip:
To have studies automatically added to a reading task when they are in the same order as the active study, do the following: Select . Click Text. From the Add studies to the reading task list, select Only studies with a reading task and from the same order, All studies from the same order, or Studies from the same order excluding canceled ones. Click Save & close.
Whatever option you select, studies linked by a technologist to a multi-procedure acquisition task are added to a reading task automatically, except for studies that have a report. You can unlink these studies during your reading task, except for a study that was the main study at acquisition. To unlink the main study, you must first unlink all other studies related to this main study.
- To unlink a study from the current report, clear the checkbox of this
study.
The unlinked studies are moved to Comparison studies, unless they are part of the same order as the main study. Autofill fields are automatically removed from report sections and text macros are updated, unless you have edited them. You can manually remove edited autofill text and text macros.
- Complete the report using your preferred reporting method.
You have now created a single report for multiple studies.
