DMS110 lab 11-18-10

Today we practiced scanning the entire abdomen in one hour. I took images of GV, liver, GB, CBD, both kidneys, and spleen. I was not able to see the pancreas due to a large amount of gas in my patient's bowel. The focus in this lab was optimizing the images, by breathing techniques, adjusting gain, depth and focus. I also changed my pre-sets and used the auto optimize button. I liked the renal pre-set for the kidneys. Also finding different windows helped me see the left kidney and the spleen.
