Figure 1.24: Studies and Series import/export panels in the DICOM Viewer window
The panels are shown in Fig. 1.24 (Studies Import/Export Panel highlighted in green, Series Import/Export Panel highlighted in red). These panels are identical except that the former is designed to work with studies, and the latter is for series.
Series import/export panel buttons:
 | The Download selected series to local file storage button imports the selected series to the local storage. |
 | The Upload selected series to the remote server button exports the selected series to the remote PACS server. |
 | The Add selected series to the Local Storage button adds the selected series to the local storage. |
 | The Remove the selected series from the Local Storage button deletes the selected series from the local storage. |
 | The Add the selected series to the DICOM CD/DVD disc creator button adds the selected series to the CD/DVD Creator. For details on how to work with the creator, see Chapter 14. |
If the action corresponding to a button cannot be performed, the button looks pale and cannot be pressed (inactive).
Managing the Studies Import/Export Panel is completely analogous to the Series Import/Export Panel.
These actions are available as well from the context menu and the Studies menu item for studies and from the Series menu item for series. To open it from the context menu, click the right mouse button on the study.
