Subject Tab

Introduction

The Subject tab shows information about the subject collected from the DICOM header. The Subject tab is found within the Session Detail, which can be navigated by selecting a Session from the Sessions list.

The Subject tab also includes custom meta-data entered manually. This information may include the subject's code (shown in the header), and the subject's name, sex, and age.

Subject Types:There are now different "Subject Types" (Human/Animal/Phantom)

Choosing the different types will display different results.  Human - will have the First name, Last name, Sex, Cohort, Race and Ethnicity.  Animal - Sex, Cohort, Species & Strain. Phantom - doesn't give any options.
