When the technologist completes the imaging procedure, the RIS can be updated manually or automatically. The user can manually change the order state to Completed from the Order Edit page. Or, the user can manually check the patient out, which changes the state to Completed or Cancelled, depending on the information provided.
The study’s state changes automatically when the images arrive in eRAD PACS. The state in this case will be Unviewed. The user can still perform the check out procedure at this point, although the state will not be editable from the check out interface.
