# How to Search for Investigations

In Investigations, the Search function allows you to search for all Investigations, samples, and follow-ups. Let us have a look at how to use the Search function:

**1**. Go to **Investigations** and click on **Search.**  

**(a).** Now you can filter Search results by **_Patient Name, Mobile No, File No._** _or **Sample Ref No.**_

**(b).** Alternatively, you can also search by the **_Investigation Name_** _or_ the **_type of Investigation_ i.e. Lab or Radiology.**

**(c).** You can filter the search by **Date Range**. And lastly, you can use the **_Search Organization_** option, if Investigations were ordered from an external center.

Once you have fed in the criteria for the search, simply click on the **Search icon** to view the result. Next click on any of the result to see details of an Investigation.
