eRAD PACS Operator Manual performs a single imaging procedure. The PACS system receives a single image set containing the images for all three orders. eRAD PACS can handle this situation if the individual orders are logically marked as a Group Order. When a RIS submits orders to eRAD PACS, it can mark orders that will become a single grouped order. If the RIS is unable to support this configuration, or for some reason multiple orders appear on the eRAD PACS worklist need to be grouped, use the Group Order function available on the Worklist page. Click the Group Orders tab to display the group orders page. The page lists the scheduled orders. To group two or more together, check the boxes on the far left of the row containing the order, and click the batch merge button, , at the top of the list. The orders are now grouped. On the main worklist, each order still exists. This lets you review and edit each order separately. To ungroup a grouped order, click the Group Orders tab to display the group orders page. Find the order group, and click the More Information button, . The individual orders in the group appear in a list. Check the box on the left for the order you want to remove from the group, and click the Ungroup button. If you want to remove more than one order from the existing group, and group them into their own group, check the boxes for the studies to remove, and click the Split button. The two groups now appear on the group list. When an image set arrives for any one of the orders, as identified by the Study UID or when merged into the order, automatically or manually, all the orders disappear from the worklist. eRAD PACS tracks the image set as corresponding to all orders in the group, so when it updates the RIS with a status or a report, it sends the update once for each order attached to the image set.

6.10 Custom Folders eRAD PACS supports custom folders, where a user can save copies of studies in specified groups. The user creates a folder by giving it a name, and then adds and removes studies into the folder for easy reference. Studies can exist in a folder by reference or explicitly. Referenced studies are just shortcuts to the actually study, meaning a change in either the main study or the one in the folder will be reflected throughout the eRAD PACS system. Explicit copies of studies are actually independent duplicates. These studies can be sanitized and modified, and the original study is not affected. Referenced studies appear in the folder list shaded gray. Independent copies appear in the folder list like they do in the worklist. The first step in using a custom folder is to create the container under Worklist/Folders. The , to create Folders page lists all the created folders for your account. Click the Add button, a new folder. Enter a folder name and click Add. The new folder appears on the list. You can Page 48
