Displaying GSPS Annotation Objects

Introduction

A Grayscale Softcopy Presentation State (GSPS) object is used to display annotations overlayed on a displayed study image. Synapse supports the display of simple graphics, using GSPS annotation objects from third-party vendors.

  • You can hover over the Presentation State icon to display additional information.
  • There are two options for displaying GSPS annotation objects:
    • One GSPS annotation object.
    • All GSPS annotation objects.
  • A series level DICOM transfer to PACS is not supported.

Note:
  • When both the AI based GSPS/CAD SR and the converted DICOM SEG are available, the Viewer only displays the DICOM SEG as the AI result. The original GSPS/CAD-SR does not display in the Viewer.
  • When you enable slab thickness, GSPS annotations do not display if you are not on the image with the GSPS annotation. For example, if the slab thickness is 3 images and the GSPS annotation is on the first image and you are on the 2nd image, the GSPS annotation does not display.
