This article explains how to upload images into a patient's medical record in Exams and Forms.

Adding a Report Image

1. Select Exams & Forms from the Patient Dashboard by selecting the arrow.

Exams&FormsBox

2. Select Add (Blue button in upper left corner of the Exams/Forms box.)

Visit Number

  • If there is an open Visit for the patient, the Visit Number (and detail) will be displayed - see example below.
  • If there is no open Visit, you should select one from the drop-down. ALWAYS associate the proper Visit in the drop-down

Note: If a Visit is not associated, you will not be able to Send the report to the owner, RDVM, etc.  Email medrec@vetmed.illinois.edu for assistance with exams lacking the Visit number. 

Example: Selection box with an Open Visit        

Example: Selection box without an open Visit

4. Select Exam Type and select Imported Videos/Pictures and Submit (AGAIN, it is VERY important that you associate a Visit or you will not be able to Send the report.)

Notes:

  • You can verify the Exam at any time by choosing the Verify Exam button in edit mode.
  • There is a 100MB limit for uploaded files. If your file exceeds this limit, you will be notified within the upload screen.
  • Uploading PDFs is allowed, but those over 10MB may take a few seconds longer to upload/generate, and screen instructions will appear.
