Re-process Images
Image re-processing allows the system to extract more information from an already acquired image by
changing the processing settings instead of taking additional exposures.
Re-processing can be performed on any image that has a corresponding raw data set. Images can be re-
processed both in live exams and in review mode.
Re-processing creates a new image in the “PROCESSED” series.
NOTE: When closing an exam or closing patient in review mode, you must select to save changes to
images or the re-processed images will not remain in the series. Refer to Save Changes to Images
(p. 8-27) for more information.
The initial image processing is determined by the default that is configured for the protocol. Refer to
Chapter 10:
Set Preferences-Image Processing (p. 10-32) for more information.
Table 8-6 describes the settings used to re-process an image.
