Importing Reading Protocols

Introduction

Importing reading protocols allows you to use the same reading protocols from one facility at a different facility. You can import the following types of reading protocols:

  • Reading protocols created in Synapse 5.1 and above can be imported into Synapse 4.4.1 and above
    • Exception: Synapse 5.1 and above MG Tomosynthesis reading protocols cannot be imported into Synapse 4.4 and above. Synapse 4.4 and above do not support MG Tomosynthesis.
  • Reading protocols created in Synapse 4.4 and above can be imported into Synapse 5.1 and above.

When you import reading protocols, the file must be an XML file. To import multiple XML files at once, all these files must be in a zip file.

Note:

You must have the privilege to import reading protocols.
