10 Using the Image Library
The Image Library contains images from patients who have had optomap® examinations. The images provide
examples of pathology captured by the system and may be used for training purposes or patient
education.
The Image Library should only be used for guidance and not as a comparison tool for diagnosing
pathology.
You can also create your own Custom Image Library from images you have captured.

1. Select Review menu > Image Library to display the Image Library.
2. Select the File Type. If you do not know the file type leave the option set to All File Types.
3. Double-click the image you want to open.

How to add an image to your Custom Image Library
You can add an image to your own Image Library . You can then use this Custom Image Library to store copies of
patient images.
You must ensure that the patient's details are protected when copying images to the Custom Image Library, for
this reason the patient details are removed from the copied image. You should also always rename the
image filename.

2. Select Image menu > Add to Custom Image Library to display the Add to Custom Image Library dialog box.
3. The default path will be shown.
4. Type the new filename. Ensure that the patient identification is protected.
5. Select the file type to be used.
6. Optional: Deselect the option to Include Notes and Annotations if required. Click OK.
