Reading Protocol Hierarchy

Introduction

Synapse groups reading protocols from the most specific matching criteria to the least specific criteria matching criteria:

  1. Series-based reading protocols
  2. Procedure-based reading protocols
  3. Modality-based reading protocols
  4. Generic reading protocols

When Synapse selects reading protocols for a study, Synapse displays the list of grouped reading protocols in the Reading Protocols drop-down list.

Default Reading Protocol Hierarchy

Prioritize your reading protocols by selecting a default reading protocol. You can select more than one default reading protocol (one per reading protocol type).

Synapse automatically updates the default reading protocol with a Last Modified Timestamp, displaying the default reading protocol at the top of its group. For example, a default modality reading protocol displays first within the modality-based reading protocols group.

Grouping Reading Protocols

Synapse groups reading protocols using the following hierarchy:

  1. Default series-based reading protocols
  2. Series-based reading protocols
  3. Default procedure-based reading protocols
  4. Procedure-based reading protocols
  5. Default modality-based reading protocols
  6. Modality reading protocols
  7. Generic reading protocols
