Learning Objectives:

Learn how to simplify the angles of the beam to the patients head and sensor.
What do we do if the image isn’t diagnostic, know our next move!
How to efficiently use workflow and your software to increase efficiency and speed.
When we need more than one image of an area, how do we do that?
