The Images page allows the user to adjust image zoom factors, activate auto-orientation, and customize window/level settings.
The Images Settings contains a subset menu of four customization tabs:
Auto Orientation
| Auto Orientation Settings | Default | Description |
| Left/Right Auto Orientation | Left | Automatically set the left or right side of axial images to the right edge of the image frame |
| Posterior/Anterior Auto Orientation | Posterior | Automatically set the posterior or anterior side of sagittal and mamography images to the right edge of the image frame |
See: Auto Orientation
| Compression Settings | Default | Description |
| Compression | Auto | Algorithm used for compressing images |
| Wavelet Quality | Lossless | When using wavelet compression, use bit conserving quality factor (Lossless) or terminate the decompression when the selected ratio (N:1) is achieved |
| Window and Level Settings | Default modality | Description |
| Apply VOI LUT | Enabled | Apply the VOI LUT, if present, to the image when displayed |
| Minimum of W/L range | 0 | Set lower boundary for window/level |
| Maximum of W/L range | 4096 | Set upper boundary for window/level |
| Automatic W/L range (in %) | 95 | Reduce the data set to the defined distribution range |
| Aggressive | Disabled | When enabled, the window and level values calculated from the data distribution reduce high occurrences of background noise |
| Auto W/L setting | No override | Override predefined window and level settings using the internal analysis program |
| Unify W/L settings | Disabled | Override the explicit W/L value for each object in the series for a single calculated value |
Note: These settings are modality specific.

| Zoom Settings | Default | Description |
| Zoom Mode | Fit to window | Set zoom mode |
| Enhanced Smart Fit | Disabled | Attempts to identify anatomy that is not breast |
| Enhanced SmartFit Detection | Disabled | Updated algorithm that increases the success rate of skin line detection. |
| Magic Zoom Factor | 3000 | Defines the magnification applied to the data inside the magic glass window |
| Enhanced ROI Zoom Factor | 1000 | Defines the magnification applied to the enhanced ROI window |
| Default Snap Zoom Factor | 1000 | Set the magnification applied to the image after invoking any of the snap-to-functions |
See: Magnifying the Image
| Image snapping settings | Default | Description |
| Default snap zoom factor | 1.000 | Set the magnification applied to the image after invoking any of the snap-to functions |
| Pixel spacing settings | Default | Description |
| Use Estimated Radiographic Magnification Factor | Enabled | Use Estimates Radiographic Magnification Factor for correct Pixel Spacing values. If this DICOM value is not available but Distance Source to Detector or Distance Source to Patient is available, then it will be used to correct pixel spacing. |
| Magic Glass settings | Default | Description |
| Magic zoom factor | 3.000 | Defines the magnification applied to the data inside the magic glass window |
| Enhanced ROI zoom factor | 3.000 | Defines the magnification applied to the enhanced ROI window |
| Mammography view settings | Default | Description |
| Enhanced Smart fit | Disabled | Enhances the Smart fit zoom applied to breast anatomy by excluding non breast anatomy below and above the breast |
| Enhanced Smart fit detection | Disabled | Enhances the initial detection needed for Smart fit zoom and applies a new threshold algorithm for detecting breast anatomy |
| Progression Settings | Default | Description |
| Progression Overlapped (in %) | 10 | Percentage of theimage highlighted in the progression mode border |
| Auto progression size | Disabled | Reverts back to the previous (auto-sized) progression step feature. |
| Horizontal progression tiles | 1 | Number of horizontal tiles applied during progression sweeps. |
| Vertical progression tiles | 3 | Number of vertical tiles applied during progression sweeps. |
| Show overlapped area | Enabled | Highlight regions that do not belong to the current progression area but are visible in the image view |
| Export Settings | Default | Description |
| Show folder | Disabled | Automatically open folder containing newly saved images. |
| JPEG quality | 100 | Determines the quality of exported .jpg images. |
| TIFF compression scheme | None | Specifies the compression methos applied to .tig images. |
