Known limitations:

• Notice – HP v1 is planned for deprecation starting from version 8.10.0.
• Mozilla Firefox and Chrome browsers have certain memory limitations: MIST Oblique functionality will fail on series where uncompressed DICOM data is larger than 2 GB.
• Depending on how much Multiframe will be displayed at a time, it may display at a slower speed, as well as displaying FPS differently than the set speed, due to the computer’s capabilities and speed.
• MIST Oblique functionality – If the study’s underlying series are inconsistently spaced, non-parallel, or contain gaps, measurements will not be available, and the user will be informed accordingly.
• MIST MPR reconstructions (Oblique, Axial, Coronal, Sagittal) are limited to 2048 slices, or fewer depending on the amount of VRAM available on the user’s PC.
• LiveShare functionality – Please note that not all Viewer functionality has been migrated to LiveShare. Users accessing content via LiveShare may not see the full view shared by the main user.
• Image viewing when HTJ2K decoding is done in the frontend does not support displaying overlays.
• AWS HealthImaging limitations: DICOM Overlays and Live Share features are not supported in the AWS HealthImaging integration.
• Internet Explorer 11 is not supported.

Known bugs:

• Safari and Firefox problems: preview is not working for some video studies because of these browsers’ limited video format support.
