  • Patent number: 9519753
    Abstract: Systems and methods for coordinating a medical imaging workflow with the use of preparation and coordination actions, and similar pre-processing protocols are disclosed herein. Imaging procedure data from a medical imaging study, such as image data and order data produced from imaging procedures (e.g., radiological imaging procedures) at medical facilities is processed and presented for review to a preparing user. The preparing user is offered the ability to change the display characteristics of image presentation, supplement erroneous or incomplete data and information of the study, open a support request for the study, or associate prior or comparison images with the study. The changes provided by the preparing user within these or other portions of a preparation protocol may be used to affect a subsequent display of the medical imaging study, and in some examples, to affect the assignment of the study in the workflow to particular imaging users.
