TigerView Direct Thumbnail Bridging Integration Instructions
TigerView features a simple method of practice management software (PMS), or Electronic Medical Record (EMR) software integration that allows PMS/EMR applications to start TigerView with a thumbnail filename, and immediately open the full-sized image in our viewer.This method of integration utilizes a command line argument to determine which image file to open in our viewer. This method builds upon the Command Line w/ Thumbnails and INI Fil w/ Thumbnails bridges.
Note: This method of bridging is currently only supported in TigerView Cloud product.
The syntax of the command line is as follows:
[TigerView Program Path] Slave2 [Thumbnail Filename]
Example:
C:\TigerView\Tiger1.exe Slave2 C:\YourPMS\PatientThumbs\654321\tmb1.jpg
- or -
C:\TigerView\Tiger1.exe Slave2 C:\YourPMS\PatientThumbs\Johnson_Robert\tmb2.jpg
Notes:
- [TigerView Program Path] is the fully qualified path to the TigerView executable tiger1.exe. For a default installation of TigerView, the path is as shown in the above example (C:\TigerView\tiger1.exe).
- The string Slave2 tells TigerView that a thumbnail filename is being provided, and that TigerView should open the corresponding full-sized image in our viewer. There is a space between Slave2 and [Thumbnail Filename].
- [Thumbnail Filename] is the fully qualified path to the thumbnail image file. This path can be a local path, network drive path, or UNC path.
