### Displaying or hiding text overlay

Text overlay displays details about an image, and the study and patient to which the image belongs.

Images can be displayed with or without text overlay. However, the text overlay that indicates non-diagnostic quality of images is always displayed and cannot be hidden. See Indication that images are not for diagnosis.

The content and location of text overlay are configured for your site and may be modality specific. For details, contact Change Healthcare Support.

Restrictions for displaying text overlay

You can display full or minimal text overlay. However, this may be affected by the size of the image display area within a viewport. For example, if the area is smaller than the minimum size required to display full text overlay, the minimal text overlay is displayed.

The minimum size of the image display area within a viewport required to display text overlay, full and minimal, is configured for your site by Change Healthcare.

Note: The size of the image display area within a viewport depends on the number of viewports on the screen and the number of images in each viewport. See Setting screen and viewport layout.

Indication that images are not for diagnosis

The following text overlay is always displayed on each image, to indicate that the images cannot be used for diagnosis:

| • | NOT FOR DIAGNOSIS

The following table describes the location of the overlay on each image:

Modality type | Location
MG (mammography) |
| • | For left image laterality, top right corner of the viewport
| • | For right image laterality, top left corner of the viewport
Note: Laterality refers to the specific left or right breast, not the patient orientation.
Other | Top right corner of the viewport

Note: This text overlay cannot be hidden or configured in any way.
