The study is in the process of being sent to Synapse.

Sent

The study has been sent to Synapse. The Sent status is an option that is set for your entire site. If your administrator configured this status for your use, the study stays in Sent status until a user either completes the study in the RIS or changes the status in Synapse. Once complete, the study displays in the Unread Studies folder.

Complete

All of the images are loaded into the system and the study is ready to be read.

Note:

  • This status is only available for Advanced Reporting (AR).
  • Synapse restricts this status to AR studies only and excludes this study from Change Status.

Dictated

After the radiologist has read the study, the system assigns a status of Dictated. When the system receives the dictated reports, the study is marked as Finalized.

Finalized

Images have been read by a radiologist and report documentation is available as reported by the RIS.

A physician read the images. For AR studies a report is available.

Unlock Study

Click to unlock a study or AR report. The Unlock Study option is only available when Synapse locks the study or an AR report.

When you confirm to manually unlock a study that does not have an AR report associated with the study, Synapse removes the lock from the database.

AR Procedures

When you confirm to manually unlock an AR report, the following happens:

  • Synapse saves the CRA data through long polling based on the user's Automatic Logoff Save Changes option in User Settings.
  • The CRA closes General User Settings.
  • Synapse releases the study lock from the database.
  • Synapse displays a toast message to the user indicating that a System Administrator removed the lock.
