image (above), side by side, in a series, or in a cineloop. Images
from any number of studies can be displayed on the screen at the
same time in an x-by-y layout from 1x1 to 20x20 and even higher.

Annotations
and Measurements
Images can be annotated using a number of tools
available in MiPACS View. Text, Highlights, Notes, pointers, markers,
and shapes, as well as freehand lines and polylines can be added
to an image without compromising the image's data. Annotation mode
can be turned on or off with the click of a button, so images can
be viewed unobscured.
Patient information is laid out on the image
in each of the four corners, and can be turned on or off for each
image. Indicators of position (anterior, posterior, left, right)
can be turned on or off for any image as well.
Measurements using protractors, cross-sectionals,
and single and poly-line rulers can be made and and recorded on
images as annotations as well.
