File Preparation
Please note that the software only accepts DICOM format for imaging files. All files must be in DICOM format and should be compressed into individual .zip files for each timepoint. Each individual timepoint must be separated into individual zip files. You cannot upload the entire subject in one upload. You must create separate uploads for each timepoint.
Please ensure that your imaging files are properly zipped before attempting to upload them to the software. A zip file is a compressed archive file that reduces the size of the files being uploaded and keeps them organized.
Here are some resources on how to create zip files:
- How to Create a ZIP File on Windows
- How to Create a ZIP File on Mac OS
- How to Create a ZIP File on Linux

All timepoints must be uploaded seperately. Do not include all imaging in one zip file. Failure to do so will require repeat uploads.

- Select subject or create subject by clicking on create subject:
- Enter the subject ID. Please ensure that the Subject ID follows the study convention (i.e. 1 vs 001)
- Enter Procedure Date or Time. This might differ depending on the study. Please refer to study specfic documentation if you have questions.
- Select imaging modality and/or type of imaging. If timepoint includes multiple seperate types of imaging, then select multiple.
