Modifying Study Information

Introduction

You can modify an existing study or add a new study in Content Manager without going to an external system, such as RIS scheduler.

Note:

You cannot edit patient information. See Modifying Patient Information. You must select a study for the Edit to display. When you edit an Advanced Reporting (AR) study with a report, Synapse disables the Status option. When you edit an AR study without a report or when you edit a non-AR study, the Preliminary and Corrected options display in the Status drop-down list but are disabled.
