Modality

Radiology Modalities

This module helps you manage the radiology and imaging equipment (called "modalities") used in your healthcare facility. You can register different categories of machines (like MRI, X-Ray, or Ultrasound) and track each specific machine, including its network address and physical location.

When Do I Use This?

• When your clinic or hospital purchases a new imaging machine and needs to add it to the system.
• When an existing machine is moved to a different department or room.
• When a machine breaks down or goes under maintenance, and you need to mark it as inactive so staff know it cannot be used.
