How to add Labs and Imaging Results to a Clinical Note
Creating a Note with All Results
To attach all Labs and Imaging results, you can use the variables in notes or templates.
- Use the $allLabTests variable. This will return all Lab results for all electronic, Fax, and Connected portal lab orders associated with the patient.
- Use the $allImagingTests variable. This will return all Imaging results for all electronic, Fax, and Connected portal imaging orders associated with the patient.

To attach a specific Lab or Imaging result, you can use variables directly in the notes or the Add to note button on the results view page.
