Using Series Selection Menu

Introduction

Synapse populates the Series Selection Menu (SSM) with the names of current and comparison series from the automatic or manual comparison operations. If you add a new comparison, Synapse adds the series names from the study to the SSM. If no comparison studies are available, the SSM only lists the series for the selected study.

 

To make it easier to find a series, Synapse groups all studies in current and prior drop-down lists using the study icons. Synapse displays the study indicators (C, P1, P2, and so on) next to the study icons.

    Click or hover over the series name. Synapse displays a list of available series.

  2. Click the series you want to display in the viewport.

Note:

  • You must refresh the Viewer to display the new content in the SSM.
  • The SSM closes automatically when you select an option from the SSM or click outside the SSM. This menu resets anytime you close or refresh the Viewer.

Example

For the current study, the Series Selection Menu (SSM) indicates whether you have viewed all the images in a series:

  • If a check mark is next to a series, you have seen all the images in the series.
    • Example: RCC [S1](T1)-71300000 (1)
  • If the series has a partially filled-in box next to it, you have seen some but not all the images in the series.
    • Example: RCC TOMO (T1)-71300000 (81)
  • If the series has an empty box next to it, you have not reviewed the images.
  • All currently displayed series in the viewports have a green, rectangular outline.
  • All series not currently displayed in the viewport are not outlined.

Results

Synapse displays the selected series in the viewport.
