storage commitment server.
To send storage commitment after an exam ends
(1) Open [Setup] -> [System Preset]-> [General], and then select [Sending/ Printing after
End Exam] in the Patient Info area.
(2) Set the default storage server and storage commitment server.

DICOM Service]”.

page and click [Default]; you can see “Y” is marked in the Default column.
c) Click [Exit] to exit the page and return to Setup menu, then click [Save] on the
Setup menu to make the preset to take effect.
(3) When finished the presets, you can perform image scanning, each time you press
<End Exam> on the control panel, the system will send the image to the default
DICOM storage server for storage and send storage commitment to storage
commitment server.
If images are successfully sent to the storage server, the storage commitment server will
return information about the successful image storage. In the iStation screen, you will see
there is a tick “√” marked in the list below
.
Tips:
Storage commitment is confined to the whole exam; not each image sending can be indicated.
Multi-frame storage is not allowed if “Allow Multiframe” is not selected ([Setup]->
[DICOM Preset] -> [Set DICOM Service] -> [Storage]
). For example, if there is
multi-frame file in the exam to be sent, then only single-frame image storage will be
performed, and after the storage is completed, there is no “√” marked in the list
below
in the iStation screen.
