Missing Series Overview
Introduction
A missing series occurs when a reading protocol expects a series that is not present in the study opened. A missing series could be the result of one of the following reasons:
- The technologist did not send the series.
Example: The reading protocol expects an RMLO series but the study does not contain the RMLO series. - The technologist sent the series with a
name other than the name expected by the reading protocol.
Example: The series name might have been manually entered by the technologist, or the series name might not be a standard name.
Series Based Reading Protocols
When Synapse uses a series-based reading protocol to display a study and there are one or more missing series, Synapse displays a Series Not Found : <expected series name> message in the missing series viewport.
Options for Adding a Missing Series
You can add a series to the viewport with a missing series message in the following ways:
- Use the Series Selection menu.
- Drag a series thumbnail to a viewport.
- Drag a series from one viewport to another viewport.
You cannot do the following:
- Drag the missing series message to another viewport.
