How to share studies with EFILM

Post by hilario » Tue May 19, 2009 4:32 am

There are some studies where OnePackDesktop tools are to basic (for example 3d reconstruction, etc.).
At this moment we download again DICOM information from the central PACS in order to open it with EFILM.
I know we have the images dowloaded on de Download Manager (dir. Filestore) but we don't know how to use them (or export them to EFILM) and as they only are identified by a number it is very dificult to find the one we want to use on EFILM.
Can you suggest a way to work better than what we use?
Regards

Hilario

Hilario,

There are a couple of ways this can be accomplished.

Option 1) Push for OnePacs Workstation

Efilm is configured as a destination in OnePacs workstation by default. You may need to change the parameters if your install of differs from the defaults.

1) Open the workstation
2) On the "DICOM" tab there is a "Servers" folder. In the "Servers" folder there is a "eFilm" destination. Right-click on the eFilm destination and choose verify.
3) If the connection is not successful you may need to modify you settings.
3a) Right-click on the eFilm destination and choose edit. Modify your settings as appropriate and save.
3b) Re-verify the connection as described in step 2.

You can now forward any study to eFilm by simply right-clicking on the study row and choosing "Send".

Option 2) Multiple destinations in the study downloader (future release)

In the near future it will be possible to configure multiple store destinations in the study downloader. Thus you could configure your study downloader to send to both OnePacs Workstation and eFilm. This feature will likely be out in a month or so.

Thanks,

Justin
