Testing the Patient Updater

Step 4 - Testing the Patient Updater with the LEAD Sample External Store Add-in

Verify the behavior of the patient updater functionality with the external store. There are three cases to verify:

• Updating a patient that exists only in the local store
• Updating a patient that exists in both the local store and the external store
• Updating a patient that exists only in the external store

• Click the Empty Database button to empty the database

  

• Click the Add DICOM button, and add the file Image2.dcm
