Thumbnail panel headers

 

The series thumbnails displayed in the Thumbnail panel can be configured to display a header. The header can be positioned above or below the thumbnail, or as an overlay at the top or bottom of the thumbnail image.

 

To configure the header, do the following:

  1. From the Settings menu, select Customize Settings.

  2. Select the DICOM Fields tab.

  3. Select the position from the Display Location list. The available options are

  4. Define the value displayed in the header by selecting a field in the Tag or Info sections and clicking the respective Add button. The fields appear in the area on the left.

  5. Click OK.

By default, the thumbnail header appears above the thumbnail image and contains the Series Description value.

 

When displayed as overlay data at the top or bottom of the thumbnail image, headers are subject to the Show/Hide Image Info setting. When overlays are hidden, so are the thumbnail headers.

 

Each of the available header positions supports a single line of text. If more information is needed, activate additional header positions. Additionally, multiple field values can be concatenated onto a single line. As with the study header, if the header value exceeds the width of the header area, position the mouse over the header and the field will be extended to display the full value. The font and background colors can be customized in the Colors or DICOM Fields panels in Customize Settings.
