This page contains additional importing features supported by MedITEX.

Please plan enough time for the preparation of the data import as it usually takes several tries to bring all data in required structure.

 

Patient demographics import

You need to prepare an import file which is a list in Excel or CSV format where each line is ONE patient.

Cryo storage import

It is mandatory to prepare an import file where each line is ONE straw.
