  2. Choose the Imaging Order and the Study. Enter the Title.
  3. Write the Report Text: findings and impression. Report text is required before signing.
  4. Tick Critical if the finding needs urgent action. When you sign, a notification is created for the ordering clinician.
  5. Select Final Sign. The report is signed with your name and time, added to the patient's timeline, and an acquired order becomes Reported.
  6. Select Print Signed Report to print a copy.
