| Issue: | The GSI Viewer application running on AW/Volume Share or on the AW Server when making a batch and rotating the batch group clockwise 180 degrees (Inferior to Superior) will display images in the Superior orientation. The orientation annotation on the image is correct. The concern is that the patient right/left representation is from the Superior view, which could result in a misreading of the image and misdiagnosis. |
