Editing study comments

Study comments are a free-text record that allow communication both within the radiology department and with other departments. For example, emergency (ER) physicians can record additional information in the study comments that the radiologist needs to make an accurate diagnosis. You can edit study comments created by you or other users.

To edit study comments

  1. Display the Text area for the study of interest.

  2. Scroll to the Report panel.

  3. If not visible, switch to the Study Comments tab.

  4. For the study comment to edit, click Edit.

  5. Edit the study comment as required.

  6. To make the study comment private, click Make Private.

    If the study comment is already marked as private, to make it viewable by all users (regardless of role) accessing the study, click Make Public.

    Private study comments are available at the role level, not the individual level. The Private Study Comments operation must be enabled for users of the role to see the comments.

  7. Click Save.

    The changes to the study comments are saved and the date, time, user ID stamp is updated.
