Exporting Images to Other Sites
Exporting studies to other sites in the region including Bristol is extremely quick and easy. First, open the patient explorer - the button in the top left with a green man poking out a folder - then navigate to the right patient and find the relevant study in the bottom right box. Then if you scroll along the rows to the “referral status” column there is a green button - click this button to bring up the “Refer to” box. Complete this and the images will be automatically transferred.
To export images to distant sites out side the region you need an account with the national “Image Exchange Portal”. Only weirdo regs like me have one of those - in general just ask the radiographers to do this for you. If you really want to be able to do it yourself this is the site (only works from trust networks).
