Displaying Non-DICOM Images in Global SCV Studies

Introduction

You can view non-DICOM objects included in a Synapse Cardiovascular (SCV) study from a global datasource. Objects include images, documents, and videos. For non-DICOM file types that are not supported, such as AVI and MPEG, you can download the file type.

Note:
  • If Synapse does not support a file type, click Download to download the file. Check with your System Administrator to ensure that you have the applicable software installed for viewing a particular file type.
  • File names from SCV studies display as tif0.tif, tif1.tif, tif2.tif (and so on) regardless of the actual file name and extension.

Synapse supports and displays the following non-DICOM file types:

  • JPG
  • PNG
  • TIFF
