Open multiple studies

You can open multiple studies at once. This allows you to review multiple studies in a single session without having to return to the Patient Study Directory.

1. Use any of the options in the navigation tree to find a study (Patient Search, Patient Directory, Recently Opened, Worklists and Folders). For details, see Access studies.
2. Select the checkbox beside the studies you want to open. You can also select studies from a folder or worklist. To select all studies in a folder or worklist, select the checkbox in the top row.
3. Right-click (or touch and hold) one of the studies and select Load Studies. Select one of the following options:
• Load as batch  Load the studies separately (as separate patients). You can also select the Load button to load studies separately.
• Load as priors  Treat the studies as a collection of studies from a single patient. The most recent study will open in the image viewer and older studies will appear as prior studies in the patient timeline.
4. The studies open in the image viewer. If you selected Load as batch (or the Load button), the number of loaded studies is shown at the top of the image viewer (for example, 1 of 5).
• Use the arrows beside the number of loaded studies to navigate through the studies.
• Click (or tap) the number of loaded studies to select a study.
• Click (or tap) the patient name to view patient details.
