Studies

The Studies page allows you to search and view studies of AdvaPACS tenants.

Searching Studies

The Search section provides inputs and selection to search for studies.

The Studies page does not display studies unless you search for them using the available search options. However, you may choose to search and display all studies by clicking Reset to clear the input fields, and then Search.

Study Access

You can only search for studies that tenants have given you permission to access. In order to gain access to studies, you need to request access to a tenant listed in the PACS Directory.

It's important to note that being granted access to a tenant does not automatically provide you access to their studies, unless the tenant have already implemented specific Types of Access to their studies.

Study Sources

The studies displayed on the Studies page may come from different tenants that you have requested access to.

You can filter out studies based on the tenant by searching studies using the search option shown below.

Study Options

After a tenant grants you access to studies and provides specific Types of Access, the studies should be searchable in the studies listing page, which has the following options:

Keep in mind that the availability of these options on the studies depends on the tenant who owns them. This means that other studies owned by another tenant may have a different set of options, considering that you can request access from multiple tenants. For example, a download option could be available in one study but not in another.

If you require assistance, please contact the tenant who owns the study you are trying to access.
