Applications and Considerations

About this task

The Applications feature is used to update the image annotation with the appropriate name for the hospital or outpatient facility.

Procedure

Below are some general considerations:
- Periods, commas, or apostrophes (non-alphanumeric characters) are not valid for hospital names. For example: “St. Luke's” is invalid, whereas “St Lukes” is valid.
- Purchased options and features stay with the mobile unit and will not change from site to site. To add a hospital to the list, the minimum entry is the MR Scanner information (Hospital, Host Name, IP Address, Netmask and Router).
- Hospital Name, Host Name, IP Address, Netmask, Router, Host or Network DICOM information will have to be obtained from the site's network System Administrator before attempting to add a new system.
- If changes are made to DICOM or network information in the Browser or Install, the entry in the list needs to be deleted and re-entered.
- Only Activate Site requires a reboot of the system.
In order to add the current hospital to the list of previously entered sites, select Get Active Site from the Mobile Site Activation window.
- The Mobile Site Setup window will prompt for information to be entered into the mobile database.
- If Yes is selected, the hospital is added. If the Mobile Site Setup window does not provide a prompt, the hospital name is already in the mobile database.
