User report notes

 

Three types of user notes are supported. The primary note tool is available in the patient folder. The patient folder is available from the study details page, , and in the viewer. Notes are automatically time-stamped and tagged with the user's ID. Notes are displayed in the patient folder when launched from the viewer as well. Click the entry in the Notes section to display the full note in the patient folder's view area.

 

Two legacy note tools remain available. One is used by a technologist to make notes about a procedure, and is available from the browser interface. The other records the information in the report. These report notes are entered and displayed from the viewer.

 

To record a note in the report study, follow these steps:

1. Go to the report panel. 

2. In the field labeled Notes, enter the text.

3. Click on Send Report to save the text.

 

Report notes are saved and archived permanently as part of the report. They are displayed for all users with report editing permissions. For all other users, the report notes are hidden. For example, on the final report available to a referring physician, the report notes field will not be displayed.
