User Meeting At SNM 2008
We will be presenting the features of this software at the Society of Nuclear Medicine annual meeting in New Orleans, at the InfoSNM Educational Session, 3:00pm on Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Following the presentation there will be a User Group meeting. This will provide an opportunity for you to ask questions about the use of the software, to suggest changes and additions to the software and exchange your particular implementation of the software in your department. The Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center programming and implementation team will be available for you to directly interact with them. We look forward to seeing you there.

Sample Nuclear Medicine Images: As an introduction to the system, any of these images can be downloaded, viewed, and stored in the database with the OpenPACS program. Follow these steps:
- Download and "Save" a sample image to the C:\IC2006\dicom folder that will have been created on your computer during the installation. Close the download dialog.
- Start the OpenPACS program. From the pulldown menus choose "Read/DICOM" and select the image from the list. The image should now be displayed on your screen.
- Non PET-CT images can be manipulated with standard tools located on the toolbar.
- From the pulldown menus choose "Write/Database" and select the imageset(s) to be stored in the database.
- To check that all have been written, close the displayed imageset(s) and from the pulldown menus choose "Read/Database". Enter the first few letters (a single letter is sufficient) of the patient name and press "Read". The patient written to the database should be displayed. Highlight the study and press "Read" again. The image should now be displayed on your screen.
Viewing PET-CT Images: As an introduction to the system, any of these images can be downloaded, viewed, and stored in the database with the PET-CT Viewer program. Follow these steps:
- Download a sample PET-CT study to the C:\IC2006\dicom folder that will have been created on your computer during the installation.
- From the pulldown menus choose "File/Import/Dicom Network…" and select the study from the list.
- Alternately, you can access any study that you have previously written to the database using OpenPACS (above), by going to the pulldown menus, choosing "File/Read Database", choosing the patient name, and selecting the study.
