Reviewing Kowa Images

  • The Kowa review software can be used only from within Eyefinity EHR when a patient’s retinal images were previously captured using Eyefinity EHR and the Kowa Capture Interface.
  • Both the Kowa review software and Eyefinity EHR must be installed and set up on all workstations on which you want to review images. In addition, a path to the location where the Kowa database resides must be set up. For information on setting up the path to the Kowa database in the Eyefinity EHR equipment interface, see Setting Up the Kowa Interface.
  1. Ensure that Eyefinity EHR is open.
  2. Create a blank exam, or open a saved exam for an existing patient.

    OR

    Under the Eyefinity EHR Images, Drawings and Graphics category bar, click the Kowa icon.

    The Kowa Capture window opens and displays the patient’s history.

  4. Follow the Kowa review instructions to use the application.
