Users can access Image Library in Tab 4 View Images to view download progress. The Image Library (2) manages all studies downloaded or otherwise placed in the Library directory. An Image Browser (1) manages studies users wish to see first by patient, then by study, and finally by series. Images are viewed in the Viewer (3), and it has some basic features that lets users manipulate the imageThe Image Library sits at the bottom part of the screenshot. It has a combo box listing the current location of the Library (1). Users can select a different one from the combo box directory or use the browse button (2) to choose a different directory. The refresh button (3) tells the Library to scan the current Library Directory to get the latest list of studies (should any studies be added or removed outside of mi2b2). After being pressed, the refresh button turns into a stop button to allow users to cancel scanning. Finally the cancel-all button (4) cancels all ongoing downloads.

The Library has a table listing all studies in the Library directory, including all studies in its subdirectories. The first column shows a check box for existing studies. Checking the box loads the study in the Browser (top part of the screenshot). Unchecking the box unloads the study. If a study is currently being downloaded, a red X appears instead of the check box, and it allows users to cancel any active downloads. Active downloads also displays its download progress in the 4th column "Status" (6). When a download is complete, the status reads "Ready."

The Library persists over different sessions of mi2b2, and previously used Library locations are remembered. When you start mi2b2, the last known Library location is automatically loaded.

Loaded studies are organized by patient (7), study (8), and then series (9) in the Browser up top. Selecting any element opens/closes the tree. Users can unload a patient or study or series by selecting the corresponding close button (10). The open file button (11) next to it will reveal the images of a series in their directory so users can easily use other software to view, annotate, or process the images.
