Abstract

Disclosed is an image acquisition workstation including a multiple examination mode. In the multiple examination mode, a user selects an anatomical view or procedure prior to acquiring data.

As the user selects a procedure or anatomical view prior to each data acquisition, the image acquisitions can be acquired in any order.
