The ImageServer 2.0 release in February of 2010 contains a number of usability improvements to the software. The key feature additions in the release include the following:
| • | The ImageServer Dashboard - A new administration page that provides a snapshot of the entire ImageServer with information like the total Studies, number of Work Queue Items, File System status, and current Alerts |
| • | Series Level Manipulation - Series can be Moved and Deleted on the Study Details Page |
| • | Implemented a new Stat priority level for WorkQueue entries. Stat entries are processed by the next available WorkQueue processing thread |
| • | Added better linking between Web GUI screens to improve usability: |
| ► | When searching on the Studies page, a link can be used to see the entry for a study in the Study Integrity Queue or Work Queue if it exists |
| ► | Added a link from the Alert screen to the application log to see the logs when the alert occurred |
| • | Improved support for remote DICOM Devices: |
| ► | Devices can now be configured so the ImageServer will only accept Key Objects and Presentation states from them |
| ► | Added a new Device Type column for categorizing devices and making then easier to find |
| ► | Added displaying of the last know IP Address of DHCP devices |
| ► | Added a timestamp with the last accessed time for a device |
| • | Expanded the search parameters on the Studies page: |
| ► | Added Date range searching on Study Date |
| ► | Added the ability to search for Nearline and Online studies |
| • | Added the ability for auto-routing rules to be applied after editing of a study. Note that new rules must be created for this condition with a new "Apply Time" |
| • | Added mechanism for scheduling auto-routes. Auto routes can be scheduled to occur during a specified time window during the day. If an auto-route is generated outside of this window, the auto-route will be scheduled to occur during the window |
| • | Expanded the fields displayed on the WorkQueue Item details page |
| • | Added the size of a study to the database. Note that this will only be stored for new incoming studies, unless a service scheduling job to reprocess the studies is run for each filesystem on the system |
| • | Added several search filters to the Study Integrity Queue page |
In addition to these specific features, a number of defects were addressed within the software and some general refactoring was done of the code to make it easier to maintain and support in the future.
