I have better rapport with the patient, because I'm not reaching for things on the machine. Patients also like the ?high-tech' aspect and feel like they're really being scanned on a top-of-the-line system, which gives them even more confidence that they're getting a quality exam. |
When I use the voice commands, it means I'm not reaching for things on the machine, so I can get comfortable without reaching back and forth. I've been scanning for more than 20 years, and I have problems with my neck and my back. I think [speech recognition] is going to allow me to stay in the field, because I don't have to stress my body as much. |
