  2. CT WindowLevelPresets Defaults do not match suggested WL Presets on CT system.

    There are some CT WindowLevelPresets that are suggested but not present by default on SmartPACS.

    The four most common that I see used in CT (mostly small animal; in fact these are what we pre-set on our CereToms) are (in order of popularity):

    Bone: 2000 @ 500
    Soft Tissue: 400 @ 40
    (Sharp) Lung: 1500 @ -500
    Brain: 135 @ 35

  3. User Preference Default Standardization

    1. The SmartPACS local and admin users have some slight differences on their toolbars.

    Especially on VM systems, the SmartPACS service does not automatically start consistently and will occasionally need to be manually started.

    The default sensitivity for SmartPACS Viewer in SmartPACS 1.6.1 is set to Max. The default should be set to Low.

    Additionally, the Annotation Cursor Colour spelling should be updated to "color"

  9. SmartPACS Favicon

    It was noted that there is no favicon / browser icon set for SmartPACS or the SmartPACS Viewer.

    This should be the Sound logo as displayed on http://apps.soundvet.com/smartpacs/
    We will need this included in the 1.7 patch release.

  10. Overlay burned into JPG images is not the same as the Viewer Overlay

    While working through a concern, it was noted the Overlay that is burned in during the Export, Local, JPG process is not the same Overlay that is configured and defined by the user in the Viewer.

    The Images with Overlay Burned in on Export should have the same Overlay as defined by the user in the User Preferences inside of the VIewer.

  11. Allow SmartPACS OrthoPlan to permanently save an annotation

    It would be great to have the option to save the annotation as a new image instead of having to check and uncheck the correct annotation. It also ensures that the delete button is not clicked.

  12. Additional Blade Sizes for SmartPACS OrthoPlan

    Per Skylos sports medicine -They would like to request Veterinary Orthopedic templates be added to SmartPACS Orthoplan. They purchased TPLOE 10mm and 1.5mm

    Original Email: We recently purchased a 10mm TPLO blade and 1.5mm TPLO plates from Veterinary Orthopedic Implants. Neither have a template in Orthoplan. Is this something that can be added?

    https://vetimplants.com/

    Addition of the TPLO 1.5mm plate is being addressed in ticket ID 37510852. This ticket is specifically related to the addition of the 10mm TPLO/CBLO blade from VOI.

  14. Visibility of Transferred Study info for Manual Moves

    It would be helpful to view the studies already sent via manual move in case a clinic is unsure if they transferred a study. Currently you can see studies transferred, but not the patient ID or name for which study.

  15. Viewer - Measurements & Calibration stop if cursor leaves specific image viewport.

    In the Viewer if the user is performing a measurement, advanced measurement (such as TPLO, cut out, etc) or Calibration and the cursor moves outside of the current viewport frame for that specific image, the measurement/calibration will automatically end at the location where the cursor exited the frame. Listed as a bug #196

    The NXT TPLO and the TTA Forked and Forkless Plates are now available in OrthoPlan.

    Please let us know if there are any other templates that you would like to see and we will be glad to work with the implant manufacturer to get their drawings added to OrthoPlan.

    Have a great day!

  18. SmartPACS Viewer to Support the Export of both Compressed & Uncompressed Images

    The SmartPACS Cloud and local Viewer will need to support the export of both compressed and uncompressed images. Currently the SmartPACS Study List allows for the export of Uncompressed images but the Viewer only supports JPG2000 Compressed exports.

    SUGGESTED CHANGE: The Viewer Export will need a radio button allowing the user to export the images compressed or uncompressed (if available). The default can remain the compressed image copy.

    After some investigation into the requirements for the most restricted required folder structure, we have come to the following conclusion on how the folders should be structured on the Study List and…

  19. OrthoPlan Default Custom Measurement Template

    When performing a TPLO, a TPLO Plate template applied automatically to the image based on a User Preference selection of a TPLO favorite template.

    "IF POSSIBLE IT WOULD BE GREAT IF THE USER CAN SELECT IN USER PREFERENCES (SIMILARLY TO THE LOCATION OF THE CIRCLE) WHICH IMPLANT THEY WANT PASTED AUTOMATICALLY BUT MY GUESS IS THAT’S NOT POSSIBLE SINCE IT’S A DIFFERENT WORK-FLOW. IS IT POSSIBLE TO CREATE FAVORITES? SIMPLIFYING THIS WOULD BE AMAZING! " - Dr. Felix Duerr 11/20/2018

    In this instance, I would presume there should be a default template for each of the custom measurements: TPLO, TTA,…

    This feature is now available for production use. There is a new Favorite section above the Template list. This section will allow you to add a favorite template, favorite folder of templates, or create your own folder for favorite template storage. Take a look around, and please contact Technical Support if you have any questions. Thank you for your feedback!

  20. OrthoPlan Ability to Select Favorite Templates - Custom Display

    "What if we allowed users to toggle which implants there practice uses and which they do not. Implants are expensive and a practice tends to stick with a single or two manufactures. Effectively making their view more minimalistic only displaying templates that are pertinent to their practice. They could easily add and remove templates within the options?" Jose 10/14/15

    OrthoPlan has the ability to select Favorite templates for rapid use. The user has the ability to group and label these favorites as works best for them. Thank you for the suggestion.
