2-1 Medical Procedure Card
The Medical Procedure Card (MPC) is used to enter all patient-, procedure- and operator-related data.
This data is saved together with the exam images.
Note:
Patient Last Name and Patient ID are mandatory: you cannot start an exam if these fields are not
completed. The remaining information on the card is optional.
There are three ways to enter the data:
• Manually.
Enter the information directly into each of the MPC fields.
• Through a DICOM HIS/RIS system.
In this case the Worklist receives directly from the Hospital or Radiology Information System the
patient and/or procedure information needed to fill in the MPC.
Patient information and some procedure information (accession number and Study ID) received in
this way cannot be modified.
• Using a Barcode Scanner (optional on Senographe DS).
If your facility produces barcode labels to identify patients and their scheduled exams, all the data
stored on the barcodes can be scanned with the Barcode scanner option. Scanning produces an
MPC for each patient scanned, saving time and reducing errors as compared with an exclusively
manual data entry process.
