Before transferring images, we must define a DICOM identifier for treatments  where ultrasound images are required in MedITEX Scheduler.

On the top menu, go to System -> Settings -> Treatments.

Open an existing treatment or create a new treatment.

New treatments can be created with the New treatment button or existing ones can be edited by the double-clicking from the list of treatments.

On this new window, give this treatment a DICOM Identifier.

When starting an examination on the ultrasound device, search for the patient in the work-list.

Switch the search mode of the ultrasound device to “Worklist”.

All patients with treatments containing a DICOM identifier will be listed.

Select the patient and begin work as usual.

After the examination is finished, the ultrasound images will be transferred automatically to MedITEX IVF and will be available in the Overview tab for the cycle, if it exists. If no cycle exists on the examination date, images will be saved in the Female examination section of MedITEX IVF.
