Edit patient records in your EMR system (if used).
Changes made directly on the instrument do not get synchronized
into the EMR database.
u If you are connected to an EMR , always delete or edit patient
records directly in the EMR system. If you can make changes
directly on the instrument, the changes will only appear in the
instrument's database and not the EMR database.
.
Modality Worklist allows you to search a DICOM EMR archive.
A Broad Query allows searches using the following parameters:
• Date Range: Search for patients scheduled for an exam within
a selected range. To search for all dates, check All Dates.
• AE Title: Search for patients scheduled for a scan using a
particular instrument's AE Title.
