4-5 Quality Check
Two cases are possible for the Quality Check function: With Repeat and Reject Analysis (RRA) either
enabled, or disabled.
4-5-1 Case 1: RRA enabled
4-5-1-1 Introduction
If you determine that an image is of satisfactory quality, the qualification level Accepted is applied by
default, and Auto Push and/or Auto Print transfers are triggered by default when the exam is closed.
On the other hand, if you decide that an image has to be repeated or rejected, you must qualify it as
such.
In all cases, each image's qualification level is recorded in a specific database when the exam is closed.
You can apply one of three qualification levels to an image: Accepted (default level), Repeated or
Rejected, with the consequences on image transfer (Auto Push and Auto Print) as indicated in the table
below:

Qualification does not modify the image itself; it only records the applied image qualification level in a
specific database on the AWS. All qualification statistics are generated from this database.
Rejected Images
Most of the time these are non-clinical images, such as Calibration or QC images. Occasionally a clinical
image may not be worth keeping or the operator will choose not to retake the same view.
Repeated Images (to be retaken)
In the RRA feature, Repeated means that the corresponding view will have to be retaken, or has been
retaken. An image can be qualified as Repeated either before or after the view has been retaken.
It is the responsibility of the user to actually retake the exposure. The examination should not be com-
pleted before the exposure has been retaken.
