Patient Information
The patient information form allows information to be entered into the system for the patient exam.
Information which can be entered includes patient demographics, exam information, and clinical
information. This information is automatically placed on the last page of the patient report. Once a
patient is entered, all saved images will be linked to that patient. To end the exam, a New Patient
can be created or End Exam can be selected.
Note: Patient information can be edited during the exam by pressing the Patient key. However, if the
patient name, ID, or Accession changes, a new patient is created.
