Reason

Specific workflows of the Centricity Universal Viewer (UV) workstation can cause a loss of synchronization in the patient context between UV and either SenoIris or IDI Mammo workstation. In a pacs-driven workflow (UV study list), where universal viewer is integrated with senoiris or IDI Mammo workstation, the following could occur:

When switching back and forth between multiple universal viewer instances in the windows taskbar, the patient images displayed on the Mammo high resolution monitors may not show images of the patient selected on universal viewer, which could result in an incorrect diagnosis. All images display the correct patient name.

This issue affects centricity universal viewer version 6.0 SP4 or higher breast imaging integrated with either IDI Mammo workstation version 4.7.x or all versions of SenoIris.
