Note: Reports
generated on the HFA3 after importing kinetic data
from an HFA II or HFA II-
i may be different from reports generated on
the HFA II or HFA II-
i using the same data. These differences are due
to retested points not being displayed on the HFA3.
Name Splitting
When patient records, created in HFA II or HFA II-
i (software versions before 5.0), are transferred to
the HFA3, the entire patient name will appear in the Last Name field when the Name Splitting
feature is off. To avoid this, the Name Splitting feature is set to On per default during data transfer.
The preprogrammed rules for name splitting are:
1. Read from the end of the name to the first delimiter (comma,
space, or caret character) and
assign those characters to the Last Name field on the HFA3.
2. Continue reading from right to left and assign all remaining characters to the First
Name
field.
3. If no delimiter is found, all char
acters will be assigned to the Last Name field.
4. No information is added or removed
in the process of Name Splitting.
5. In HFA software version 5.0 or higher, names
will be split according to DICOM conventions.
