MEETING DESCRIPTION:
Have the “can do”, but not the “know how”? CR? DR? Not sure where you’re headed when you jump on the digital highway? This course will provide you with a roadmap of pathways to move your facility from cassettes and film to the imaging superhighway. The day begins with an overview of how to make the change from film-screen imaging to either a computed or digital radiography system. This experienced PACS administrator will educate you with the vital terminology needed to get through this exciting transition. You’ll learn how to take the technical factors for your film-screen images and make them work for you in the digital setting. Also, you’ll get to take a closer look all the current trends and upcoming software tools available to the digital imaging technologist.
