Importing Images

Once a diagnostic imaging device is integrated with Image Management, the device will send the images you take to your workstation and then to your practice’s secure cloud. Images then appear at your fingertips when you access Image Management in Encompass.

Identifying Patients

In order for images to transmit successfully, Encompass needs to know what patient the images belong to. Make sure the following demographic fields match on both your device and Encompass:

• First name
• Last name

• Date of birth

  First name and last name are case-sensitive.

  Errors in any of the above fields will prevent images from transmitting to the correct patient's chart and, in some cases, may even cause images to end up in the wrong patient's chart.
