Context

Fixes #5801

DicomMicroscopyViewport calls microscopyService.clearAnnotations() on every viewer load (in installOpenLayersRenderer) and again in the effect that runs when managedViewer or displaySets changes. clearAnnotations() removes every annotation of every series in the study, so MicroscopyService.addViewer() → _restoreAnnotations() never has anything to restore, and a measurement is gone after switching to another series and back. Greptile flagged this case in #5796, which stopped reference-only displaySets changes from clearing.

The same calls also:

  • remove the measurement on a slide when a second viewport (1x2) loads another slide, although the first slide never changes;
  • remove a microscopy SR's ROIs 2 to 249 ms after loadSR adds them (5 traced loads). isLoaded is then true, so the SR never shows its measurements.

Changes & Results

  • DicomMicroscopyViewport.tsx: remove both clearAnnotations() calls. Annotations stay in the service by study and series, and addViewer() restores them when their series is shown again.
  • MicroscopyPanel.tsx: list the annotations whose series is shown in a viewport, so every row belongs to a slide on screen. Without this, the panel keeps listing the rows of slides that are no longer shown. The viewports prop is now typed as the grid's Map.
  • modes/microscopy: onModeEnter calls microscopyService.clear(), the same place modes/basic clears measurementService, so opening the study again still starts without annotations.
  • DicomMicroscopyViewport.tsx and loadSR.ts: load an SR only once its viewport's viewer exists, and add its ROIs to the viewer whose series is the SR's own. Before, the SR effect ran on mount and loadSR used the study's first viewer, so with another slide open in a second viewport the SR's ROIs went to that slide's viewer, and with annotations now kept they stayed there.
  • tests/MicroscopySeriesSwitch.spec.ts: two Playwright tests, switching series and back, and a second viewport loading another slide.

Before (master): draw on "HE normal", load "HE tumor", load "HE normal" again.

master: after switching back, no line and an empty Measurements panel

After (this PR), same steps:

this PR: after switching back, the line and its Measurements panel row are shown

Counts are annotations in microscopyService, ROIs in the viewer, rows in the Measurements panel, on study 2.25.141277760791347900862109212450152067508:

scenario master this PR
draw on HE normal, load HE tumor, load HE normal 0, 0, 0 1, 1, 1
draw, switch to 1x2 (the new viewport gets another slide) 0, 0, 0 1, 1, 1
open a microscopy SR of HE normal (local Orthanc) 0, 0, 0 1, 1, 1; still 1 after switching away and back
one line on each of two slides, switch both ways first slide's line lost each slide shows its own line
draw, go back to the study list, open the study again 0, 0, 0 0, 0, 0
HE tumor on the left, the SR of HE normal opened on the right (local Orthanc) 0 ROIs on either viewer 1 ROI on the SR's viewer, 0 on HE tumor; same after the left viewport switches away and back

Testing

  1. Open /microscopy?StudyInstanceUIDs=2.25.141277760791347900862109212450152067508 on the deploy preview.
  2. Draw a line with the Line tool.
  3. Open the Studies panel, double-click "HE tumor", then double-click "HE normal".
  4. The line and its row in the Measurements panel are back.

TEST_ENV=true pnpm exec playwright test tests/MicroscopySeriesSwitch.spec.ts: both tests pass with this change and fail with the three source files reverted (row not visible after switching back; ROI counts [0, 0] instead of [0, 1]). Also passing: MicroscopyPanel.spec.ts, WSI.spec.ts, test:unit:ci, lint:compiler:ci (counts equal the budget), compiler:coverage:ci, build.

Not in this PR:

  • dicom-microscopy-viewer 0.48.6 throws uid of ROI must be a string: undefined on the first click of a drawing tool, and the "Something went wrong" toast appears. The line is still drawn.
  • The panel has no Save control (promptSave is never called), and constructSR throws on this study: first on the array SpecimenDescriptionSequence, then inside dcmjs's TrackingIdentifier.
  • MicroscopyPanel.spec.ts can draw before the viewer exists under parallel load (3 of 3 failed with 6 workers, on master and here). The new spec waits for the viewer first.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Microscopy measurements remain available after switching away from a slide and back, and continue to display correctly in another viewport.
    • The microscopy panel shows annotations for slides displayed across viewports, rather than unrelated study annotations.
    • Entering microscopy mode clears leftover microscopy state from a previous session.
    • Overlays load after the viewer is ready, without clearing existing annotations; SR measurements are added to the matching viewer when available.

DicomMicroscopyViewport called microscopyService.clearAnnotations() on
every viewer load and whenever its display sets changed. The call
removes every annotation in the study, so a measurement was gone after
loading another series and coming back, after a second viewport loaded
another series, and a microscopy SR lost its ROIs right after loadSR
added them.

Remove both calls. MicroscopyService already keeps annotations by study
and series, and addViewer restores them when their series is shown
again. The Measurements panel now lists the annotations of the series
shown in a viewport, and the microscopy mode clears the service on
enter, so opening the study again still starts without annotations.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Microscopy viewers preserve annotations during series changes. The panel filters annotations to series displayed in its viewports. SR ROIs are routed to a matching managed viewer when available. Tests cover switching series and using multiple viewports.

Changes

Microscopy annotation persistence

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preserve annotations across series switches
extensions/dicom-microscopy/src/DicomMicroscopyViewport.tsx, extensions/dicom-microscopy/src/utils/loadSR.ts, modes/microscopy/src/index.tsx, tests/MicroscopySeriesSwitch.spec.ts
Viewers no longer clear annotations during setup or overlay loading. Microscopy state clears on mode entry. loadSR selects the managed viewer that matches the SR series, or the first managed viewer if none matches. A test checks that a measurement returns after switching away from its series and back.
Filter panel annotations to visible series
extensions/dicom-microscopy/src/components/MicroscopyPanel/MicroscopyPanel.tsx, tests/MicroscopySeriesSwitch.spec.ts
The panel uses a typed viewport collection and filters study annotations to series displayed across its viewports. A test checks ROI counts and measurement visibility in a two-viewport layout.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Suggested reviewers: sedghi

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 29428

Measurements associated with an overlay-backed microscopy viewport may be missing from the panel; resolve the series identity before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 29428

Measurements now survive slide changes while remaining associated with their study and series. No introduced security issue was established in the inspected paths. Risk is limited, but interrupted loading and recovery behavior have not been validated at runtime.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated exposure change is longer retention of annotation data across series within the browser service. Exact restoration and study-scoped SR lookup bound the inspected normal path to the selected study and series; these identifier checks do not establish tenant authorization.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — DICOM SR content is parsed into ROI graphics and inserted into a managed viewer. The PR adds a preferred SR-series match and waits for viewer creation. The fallback to the first study viewer already existed, so its potential wrong-series behavior is not established as a newly introduced boundary bypass.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — SR loading captures the viewer list and marks the display set loaded before awaiting ROI extraction. It does not revalidate viewer membership afterward. The SR handler resets the loaded flag on rejection, but interruption and recovery were not exercised, and no newly worsened security outcome was established.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Before reconnecting the dormant save flow, define whether export is study-wide or limited to visible series, and preserve appropriate evidence for each retained series. The helper currently aggregates all study annotations using one SM metadata source, but no caller of its local save prompt was found in the inspected component.

The SR effect in DicomMicroscopyViewport ran on mount, before the
viewport's viewer existed, and loadSR added the ROIs to the first viewer
of the study. With another slide open in a second viewport, the SR's
ROIs went to that slide's viewer, and now that annotations are kept per
series, they stayed there.

Load the SR only once this viewport's viewer exists, and let loadSR pick
the viewer whose series is the SR's own, with the first viewer as the
fallback.

@coderabbitai I now load SR ROIs into the viewer that shows the SR, in 29428d8.

@awss1i, thanks for the update. I checked 29428d8.

  • DicomMicroscopyViewport now waits for managedViewer before its SR loading effect runs.
  • The viewer is registered with the displayed SR’s SeriesInstanceUID.
  • loadSR() selects that matching viewer instead of the first viewer in the study. The first viewer remains a fallback.

This addresses the reported routing problem when another slide is open. I verified the code paths, but did not run runtime tests.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Resolve overlay display sets before filtering annotations.

An SR/annotation display set remains in the viewport grid with its own UID and series UID. DicomMicroscopyViewport instead registers annotations with the referenced microscopy display set. The panel currently compares these different series UIDs, so it can omit annotations for the visible source series.

Suggested fix
           displaySetInstanceUID =>
-            displaySetService.getDisplaySetByUID(displaySetInstanceUID)?.SeriesInstanceUID
+            (() => {
+              const displaySet = displaySetService.getDisplaySetByUID(displaySetInstanceUID);
+              const sourceDisplaySet = displaySet?.isOverlayDisplaySet
+                ? displaySet.getSourceDisplaySet()
+                : displaySet;
+              return sourceDisplaySet?.SeriesInstanceUID;
+            })()

@coderabbitai I kept the panel filter as is. The SR viewer isn't actually registered under the source series: DicomMicroscopyViewport.tsx:159 takes SeriesInstanceUID from the SR display set, so its annotations carry the SR's series, and with your change applied the panel listed 0 rows with the SR open (1 without it).

@awss1i, you are correct. My proposed panel filter change was wrong. Thanks for the clarification.

I checked the code:

  • DicomMicroscopyViewport.tsx loads image metadata from the source display set, but registers the viewer with the SR display set’s SeriesInstanceUID.
  • MicroscopyService._onRoiAdded() assigns the managed viewer’s seriesInstanceUID to the annotation.
  • The current panel filter matches the displayed display set’s SeriesInstanceUID.

Replacing the SR series with the source series would exclude the SR annotations. This explains your reported drop from 1 row to 0 rows. Keep the panel filter as is. I withdraw that recommendation.

Learning: In the React/TypeScript microscopy extension, extensions/dicom-microscopy/src/DicomMicroscopyViewport.tsx loads source image metadata for an SR overlay but registers the managed viewer with the displayed SR display set's StudyInstanceUID and SeriesInstanceUID. extensions/dicom-microscopy/src/services/MicroscopyService.ts, MicroscopyService._onRoiAdded(), assigns the managed viewer's seriesInstanceUID to annotations. The filter in extensions/dicom-microscopy/src/components/MicroscopyPanel/MicroscopyPanel.tsx must retain the displayed SR display set's SeriesInstanceUID; replacing it with the source image series UID excludes SR annotations.
