Reviewing and Interpreting RAPID Videos
After completing the patient procedure and downloading the procedure data to the computer, the RAPID
software processes and transforms the raw image data from PillCam studies into conveniently viewable
RAPID videos. This section of the user manual describes the RAPID interface and how to open a study,
view the procedure video and then proceed to create a Report.
This chapter focuses on using RAPID to load a RAPID video for viewing, annotating images of interest,
adding comments and markings to the images and finally, creating a summary report.
This chapter guides you through the following main actions:
• Loading a Study with the Study Manager
• Reviewing and Interpreting RAPID Videos
• Creating a PillCam Capsule Endoscopy Report
Loading a Study with the Study Manager
The Study Manager allows you to conveniently access and manage patient studies. The studies are
organized in the Study Manager in a way that enables easy access and management of studies, sorting,
and searching by different criteria such as patient name and procedure dates.
The Study Manager connects to a directory of studies, called an Archive, at different locations, i.e. on the
local computer or on a network, on a removable drive connected to the computer, or on a CD/DVD
containing the studies. These studies are represented in a multi-line format where each line represents a
separate capsule procedure.
To access the Study Manager:
• From the Home screen, click View Study and select Study Manager in the drop-down list.
• From one of the RAPID screens, click File > Study Manager or click the Study Manager icon:
located on the Quick Access Toolbar.
