Each exam has step-by-step guidance with an interactive scanner and a working simulated injector which feels like you are scanning a real patient.
When the scans are performed, the patient actually moves through the gantry as if it were a real scan, using realistic scanner sounds, breathing instructions, common delay times and techniques and common injector settings.
Each exam also teaches the technologist how to position the patient on the table and shows them where to place the laser lights prior to zeroing out the scanner.
