Certain cases may not neatly follow the general facility turn around time settings.     The imaging facility requests the report be completed as soon as possible as the patient is waiting.   

How

Single Study:  Right click on a case.  Select the "Study Management" →  "Adjust deadline time.." menu options. 

Multiple Studies:  Use the checkboxes on the left of the worklist to select cases.  Use the bottom toolbar Manage → Adjust deadline times menu options.


The following window allows the user to configure the new target and deadline times. 


The user can 

  1. Accelerate or postpone the deadline time by a certain number of minutes, hours or days.
  2. Set the deadline time to a specific date/time.
  3. Reset the case(s) to their original times.  


The deadline time may change after this adjustment.   For example, a user could adjust the deadline time and later the case could be marked as STAT which may also adjust the TAT.
