Transmitting studies to other stations

If any external stations are configured to receive study images, you can transmit studies, series, images, or key images to them through the List or Image area.

Note:

Only non-private study comments are transmitted with the study. When a study is transmitted, it contains two study comments formats: a single string and XML. It is up to the receiver to chose which format; however, IMPAX systems prior to 6.5 and third-party PACS receive the string format from the study comments section of the DICOM header.
