Worklist Overview

The Worklist consists of a table listing orders, studies and reports currently available in eRAD PACS. The default worklist page contains the worklist table and the tools used to display images, manage orders, edit patient demographics, view reports, and forward studies. The worklist section also provides access to user-scheduled action settings,  manual correlation of orders and images, transcription services, and DICOM media creation.
