Fluoroscopy Imaging Work-flow
The fluoroscopic imaging process:
1
Surgery preparation (patient positioning, starting up the equipment,
etc.)
2
Create a new study (filling/reusing the information of a patient)
3
Make fluoroscopic exposure (generating fluoroscopic images or cine-
loops)
4
Process the generated images
5
Save and close the study
The following flowchart illustrates a more detailed work-flow that may be
followed during a fluoroscopic procedure:

Position the patient and prepare for fluoroscopic exposure
Create a new patient study by
registering a patient by entering the patient information, or
registering a patient using the information from HIS/RIS, or
registering patient using the information from local database
Set parameters for the fluoroscopy imaging by
selecting a fluoroscopy mode
