Installing the Desktop Viewer

Note: The Desktop Viewer requires a 64-bit PC and Windows 7 SP1 or later.  Full hardware requirements and recommendations.

After successfully logging into a PACS server, use the following steps to install the desktop viewer. All Windows operations are shown for Windows 10 by default, but may vary slightly for different Windows versions.

1.       For  version 8, 9 and newer

• Expand the session menu in the upper right-hand corner

• Select Download Desktop Apps

• Run the downloaded eRADDesktopApps.exe

2.   For version 7 with Desktop Viewer (version 8)

• Select Download Viewer 

• Run the downloaded eradsetup.exe

Once the launcher application is installed, it automatically checks the PACS server for updated versions of the viewer application. When an update is available, the existing launcher application downloads and installs it. 

Note: There are differences between Windows operating systems that may impact the information contained in this manual.
