After searching for studies has been performed, the results are shown in a table. If "Append" has been selected, the results would be added to the existing table. If "Overwrite" has been selected, the results would overwrite the existing table. Additional buttons are also activated.

1. (Search Statistics) mi2b2 client reports how many studies are in the current table. The number of newly added studies found in the last search is listed in parentheses. Statistics of the MRNs or ANs submitted in the last search is also reported. Links are provided to view MRNs or ANs that are duplicates or are not found. Users can use the links to examine these MRNs and export them.
2. (Selection Controls) Users may use "Select All" and "Flip Selection" to select studies listed in the table. By default none of the studies are selected.
3. (Toggle Filters) Users can toggle show/hide filter controls. Filter controls allow users to refine the results shown in the table. All filtering actions are performed on the client side exclusively.
4. (Result Table) Results of the scout is shown in this table. Each row contains a patient. If more than one patient share the same MRN, then these patients show up as a single entry with an expandable button (see the patient with MRN = 4). Users can see all patients by clicking on the expand button. Users can sort by MRNs (cycling through ascending/descending/original order) by clicking on the MRN column header. However, this is the only column users can sort by.
5. (Export Table Content) Users can export the entire content of the table or the selected rows by using these buttons. The content is exported to a text file (.txt).
6. (Request Selected Studies) After selecting the desired studies, users can click on this button to ask mi2b2 to obtain a copy of these studies and transfer them to the remote cache (on mi2b2 server). Clicking this button will transition users to Tab 3 (see below).
