### Applying a presentation

A presentation can be applied automatically and manually.

Automatically applying a presentation

A presentation is automatically applied when a study is opened. The images are presented according to the display protocol that pertains to the study. For details on display protocols, see About display protocols.

By default, the most recently saved presentation for the study is applied. However, if the display protocol contains specific values for the image presentation attributes, the specific values are applied. See About study presentations.

Manually applying a presentation

You can manually apply previously saved presentations on a case-to-case basis, for comparison or auditing purposes.

You can specify:

| • | Whether to apply a presentation to the entire study, or to selected series in the study

| • | Which attributes to apply

To manually apply a presentation to the study:

| 1. | Click the Presentation icon on the main toolbar.

| 2. | From the menu that is displayed, select Load Presentation.

The Load Presentation dialog box is displayed, listing all the saved presentations for the study.

The following table describes the information:

| • | 1 represents the initial presentation
