Search Results Overview
In reviewing search results, it is important to review the hierarchy of submissions in NBIA.
...
A Simple Search, Text Search, and Advanced Search each orders search results by Subject ID on the Search Results (by Subject) page. Clicking that Subject ID displays the studies and image series matching the search criteria for that subject. For more information, see Working with Images in NBIA 6.5 Search Results (Studies for Subject).
You can view images associated with studies for the selected subject in various ways, including:
- viewing all study images in a DICOM web viewer,
- viewing thumbnails of all study images on the Working with Images in NBIA 6.5 Search Results (Images for Series) page
- viewing selected images in your desktop DICOM viewer,
- viewing all study images in a cine loop,
- or viewing the DICOM header of the first image in the series.

At any point in the process of reviewing results, you can add items - all data pertaining to a patient, study, or an image series - to your data basket. When items are in your data basket, you must take a subsequent step to download them. |
When you download a series that has annotation files (indicated by Yes in the Contains Annotations column), they are automatically downloaded as well.

Obtaining DICOM Viewers
Most image data and some associated data within NBIA is stored in DICOM format. There are a variety of both open source and commercial DICOM tools that could be used to manipulate and view these files. While NBIA does not endorse nor recommend any particular tool, here is a list of tools that we or our partners have used in our daily work. More information about DICOM is available.
Select Tools > List of DICOM ToolsImage Viewers to open a page of selected links to freeware DICOM image viewers. This list is provided for your convenience. Many other DICOM viewers are available on the internet. This is not an endorsement of the listed viewers.
