Worklist Search Icon

If a Modality Worklist Server has been configured in the settings screen, the Modality Worklist Search button will be visible. Clicking this button will query the Worklist server and display a list of studies that have been requested. Results can be filtered the same way as local search.

To begin a Worklist study, press the Add Study button. The system will attempt to match the worklist item to any existing patients. If the patient exists, it will add the study to the existing patient and take you the the add shots screen to select the views to add to the study.

If the patient could not be found or there is required information missing from the worklist item, the system will show the add patient form. Any information from the worklist item such as Patient Name or Patient Id will be automatically populated. Verify the information and fill in any required information. Press the Next button to create a shot list for the study.
