Operator | Image property must… |
|
|
= | Match value in rule. |
|
|
!= | Not match value in rule. |
|
|
< | Be less than a numeric value in rule. For date/time values, this |
| operator can be used for “earlier than.” |
> | Be greater than a numeric value in rule. For date/time values, this |
| operator can be used for “later than.” |
|
|
<= | Be less than or equal to a numeric or date/time value in rule. |

Values

Values are typically enclosed in quotation marks ("). If a value contains both upper and lowercase characters, or if it contains punctuation marks or spaces, quotation marks are required.
Two types of wildcard characters can be used in routing rules: the asterisk (*) and the question mark (?). The question mark allows one single character in a value to be “any character.” The asterisk allows one or more characters to be “any character.”
The following examples demonstrate how wildcards can be used in
PATIENT=“*CRAY*”
To meet this condition, the patient name for an image must contain the characters CRAY. Any characters may precede or trail these characters. Names like CRAY, MCCRAY, and CRAYNE will meet this condition, but CREY will not.
PATIENT=“SMIT?”
To meet this condition, the patient name for an image must start with the characters SMIT, after which exactly one character may follow. Names like SMITH and SMITT will meet this condition, but SMITHSON will not.
PATIENT=“PETERS?N”
To meet this condition, the patient name for an image must start with the characters PETERS, then contain one arbitrary character, then end with N. Names like PETERSON and PETERSEN will match this comparison, but PETERSSEN will not.
