How to share a DICOM study
The DICOM Share feature sends a secure link to a DICOM study via SMS or email. Recipients can open the study in a web browser. No additional software is required.
DICOM Share must be enabled before use. Contact HealthTrack Support to activate this feature for your practice.
- From the Clinical Records tab, right-click on the record from the folders on the left-hand side.
- Select the Share Record option.

- Select whether the link to the study should be sent via Email or SMS in the top right.
- Select the recipients.
- Recipients such as the patient, referring doctor/s, or GP can be selected from the Interested Parties.
- The Quick Search button can be used to select external providers that may not be listed as an Interested Party.
- A mobile number or email address can be manually entered. These entries should be comma-separated, or listed on a new line.
- At the bottom of the screen, review the selected recipients and the selected method for sending the study.
- Select the
Sharebutton in the bottom right to send the study.
The nominated recipients will receive a text message or email that contains a link to view the study in a web browser.
The study link is available for 14 days from the date it was sent. Recipients do not need any additional software to view the study.
Configure SMS and email templates
A default message template is sent to recipients along with the study link. Templates can be edited in Admin > Notifications & Messages > Notification Manager.
Template configuration is an admin task. Contact your HealthTrack administrator if you need to update the default SMS or email message.
