Note: If you are using DICOM Archive we recommend that you perform all patient
data management (merge, edit, delete patients) in FORUM, not on the Stratus OCT
instrument. When you retrieve data from forum the data on your instrument will be
automatically updated. The data is not updated if you archive to FORUM from your
instrument. Please read the instructions that accompany the FORUM application.
Find and Select Records
To find records, type in the Search field above the patient list to search by last name or
patient ID. When enough letters or numbers have been typed to specify a patient, that
name will be gray-highlighted in the list. Press the Tab key to select that name.
