Labelling

It is important to label your study as accurately and completely as possible. When submitting a set of x-rays please be sure to complete the following in your software.

Accession Number – A combination of the sale code and the lot number in 4 digit format as per the following examples.

Example: 18GPR-0012

Example: 18GPR-0123

Example: 18GPT-1234

Patient Name if named – Horse’s Name followed by apostrophe and the Year of Birth (YOB)

Example: Atlantic Jewel’08

Patient Name if unnamed – Horse’s Dam Name follow by an underscore then Horse’s Sire Name followed by apostrophe and the Year of Birth (YOB)

Example: Regard_FastnetRock’08

Patient ID – The microchip number of the horse

Example: 985100010251805

The name of the veterinarian or clinic, date, sex and brands (where Microchip unavailable) are also required in the study however no specific format is defined.

Overlays

Please export your studies without burnt in overlays on images.  Our DICOM viewing software has the option toggle the most relevant tags on/off when viewing.  In addition there is a button to view all tags.

Surgery Reports

If a surgery report is submitted it must be in PDF format, please email surgery reports to [email protected] or submit online and notify repository staff.  They should be submitted along with the X-Rays where possible and at least 4 days prior to the start of the sale.

Pre-Sale Scoping Videos

In order for a pre-sale video endoscope to be submitted to the repository the examination must be performed on the sales complex prior to the commencement of the sale.  The minimum identification of the horse on the video should include: sale name and examination date, Lot number or breeding, examining veterinarian & microchip number.  Veterinarians should refer to the EVA guidelines for more information on providing suitable video endoscopes for sales purposes.  It is the veterinarians responsibility to upload the videos via Asteris.

Hanging Protocols

Our system is hanging protocol aware and can be customised depending on how effectively the anatomy of the horse can identified during uploading of the study.  If you want the viewing vet to be able to adjust the hanging protocol used we recommend you upload your study and match any images which can’t be automatically identified.

Uploading your own studies online allows the submitting vet full control over the process and more accuracy as the automatic options do not always match perfectly.

If you have an X-Ray machine that is new to market or recently updated please encourage your machine vendor to contact Asteris so they can work with the vendor to automate the hanging protocol detection system in their software.  It is advisable to submit a sample set of X-Rays before a sale to help eliminate potential problems.

Vendors

Verified vendors may be able to access reports showing viewing logs. This information is not to be shared. Vendors are emailed details from time to time. The details work for all Magic Millions Sales. If you are a vendor and lost the details or did not receive them, please contact [email protected] or enquire at the front desk.

Print outs are available where practical. Print outs are not offered at all sales. We aim to scale back on paper usage, so please get familiar with the online method. Printing is very wasteful as the information is outdated quickly when the next vet views a study.
