CD Burning

Summary

This enhancement to CD Burning introduces an access string to restrict which users have the ability to change the compression format of the images to the uncompressed format when creating a CD.

Previously, any user could request a CD be created as uncompressed. However, compression is a processing-intensive task that can lead to performance issues on the PACS server when multiple users burn CDs in this format at the same time.

With this change, a user processing image requests may be restricted from selecting the Uncompressed option by changing their Clinical.BurnCDUncompressed RIS Access String permissions to None.

Note that this permission only prevents users from changing the compression method to uncompressed - the compression method may still default to uncompressed if the Referring Physician has selected it as their default Compression preference in their Referring Preferences settings:

Note that the wording of the existing Uncompressed (fully DICOM Compliant) option in the compression dropdown is now simplified to Uncompressed.
