Quality assurance method for a machine and an operator

摘要

The present invention employs a unique method that allows a user to create at least one standard pattern about how a particular type of x-ray examination of a body part of a patient is routinely performed, then monitors the machine when a operator uses it to perform this same type of examination. The invention creates and records certain data during the performance of the examination then combines the data from a standard protocol with the data that is created during the actual performance of an examination to produce certain desired results that include the performance and skill level of the operator during the examination, the revenues and expenses involved in performing the examination as well as the productivity of the machine and operator(s) who use the machine.
