Additional buttons are also activated. - (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.

- (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.
- (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.
- (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).

View Request Status
Users are transitioned to Tab 3 after selecting "Request Selected Studies" from Tab 2 or by clicking on the tab directly. This tab allows users to view the progress of all submitted requests. Since this tab does not periodically check with the mi2b2 server for the latest statuses, users are encourage to visit this tab often or click on the "Refresh" button to get the most recent statuses.
...
Each request has a status (column 2). A request's status typically transitions from Scheduled to In Process to "Completed". When an error occurs, the status will be Error. Sometimes not all images in a study are retrievable from the PACS. When this occurs, the status is Incomplete (incomplete retrieval). Finally, after a request is canceled, the status is Canceled.
