Why series and different coupes are may be available or not in studies



Why sometimes there are several different series and cuts, and maybe a 3d series on some studies, and others contain only 2 or 1 series of instances,
I’m a beginner and would like to know if it’s possible to get this number of series and coupes each time.

Hello,

Not sure I caught your question, but I’ll give it a try…

The viewer shows the content of Orthanc.
If a study contains only 2 series of images (COMUNIX in your screenshots), only these 2 series can be displayed.
If a study contains 7 series (BRAINIX in your screenshots), these 2 series are displayed.

The quantity of series in a study stored in Orthanc corresponds to:

  • the quantity of series acquired by the medical imaging device
    plus
  • the series created by any imaging tools

HTH,

Thank you for your reply,
Great, from what you wrote, I understand that the modality is responsible for the amount of series created in the study, is this related to the type of exam, or can we manually change the parameters to get the same amount of series every time?

No idea. I would ask the modality manufacturer…
Sorry…
