Whenever a user submits an image data request to the HIRO, our website will automatically email the Principal Investigator of the relevant research study as well as any other study personnel that have been granted "Healthcare Image Data Request" access. This is done so that all the appropriate personnel involved in the study are informed when new requests are made. Similarly, an automated email will go out to the same individuals mentioned above once the HIRO has completed an image data request. If the protocol was registered on behalf of the PI by a Technical Liaison, the PI will not receive these emails.

Although we attempt to keep these emails short and informative, we realize that studies with high levels of activity may generate a large number of automated emails. As such, we have made it possible for users to "opt out" of receiving automated image request emails if they so choose. If you would prefer not to receive these emails, please email hirohelp@bsd.uchicago.edu and we will modify your HIRO account profile so you will no longer receive any automated messages.
