VistARad Configuration—Sending Sites

For sites that will be sending autorouted images:

ƒThe MAG VISTARAD SITE PARAMETERS File (#2006.69) needs to be edited.

ƒA site’s SITE CODE (IMAGING SITE PARAMETERS File (#2006.1)) must be set to a non-null value that will identify the sending site.

To set routing-related VistARad site parameters

1Open a terminal window and log into the VistA Hospital Information System.

2Access the VistARad System Options menu [MAGJ MAIN] and run the “E/E VistARad Site Parameters” option [MAGJ VISTARAD SITE PARAMETERS].

3Set the routing-related fields (shown in bold below) to YES.

Select MAG VISTARAD SITE PARAMETERS VISTARAD SITE NAME: DEMO

ÂThese steps assume that other fields in MAG VISTARAD SITE PARAMETERS are already set as desired. For information about other site parameters, refer to chapter 3 in the VistA Imaging Installation Guide.

4Use FileMan to check the value of your site’s SITE CODE field (#2006.1,.09). The value entered must not match any of the CacheLocationID values defined at

1REMOTE LIST ONLY REMOTE CACHE? This field is retained for backward compatibility. For sites using the patch 32 VistARad client, this field, when set to YES, will show only the exams that have been routed to their site. For sites using the patch 18 client, this setting is a filter that can be set as desired by each user. For more information, refer to the VistARad Quick Start Guide.

2SITE SENDS TO REMOTE CACHE? Setting this field to YES turns on extra processing that is needed to manage routed exams properly. One of the results of setting this field to YES is the addition of the RC column to VistARad’s exam lists. The RC column is described on page 59.
