Or, using HeSeL app’s ‘Import files’ function, CD/DVD medical images (DICOM) generated by medical facility can also be imported into the smartphone through a PC or network. To receive comprehensive health exam results, users need to register the health examination center (medical institute) in the HeSeL application. One week after the normal examination date, all of the results from the health examination center will be gathered and sent. Depending on the process of the center, it may take up to 10 days to receive results during busy season. During this time, please refrain from uninstalling the application and call the health examination center. Medical images can also be received upon registration with the health examination center.
