hard disk to make space for new images. The database and images must be archived and cleaned up
regularly to make space for new image files and to provide a backup if the data is lost or damaged.

process.
l
Scheduled archiving to either a network location or a NAS device

.
l
Integrated verification that confirms the data writing process was successful.
l
Storage Status indicating the online storage status and how many images are not archived.
The database holds patient information and references the location of the image files. The image files are
initially held in a separate image store on the PC hard disk. These image files are large and must be
archived and cleaned up to make space for new image files. If you do not archive regularly you will fill the
hard disk and be unable to capture more images. Lost or corrupted files can be restored from the archived
backups. The Review application displays the archive disk label if the image is requested.
The Storage application is run from the following:
