First Claim
Patent Images
1. A machine-readable medium that provides instructions which, when executed by a set of processors, causes the processors to provide instructions to at least one of a motion device and an imaging device comprising:
- receiving information from at least one of the motion device and the imaging device during an imaging session;
analyzing the received information;
instructing at least one of the motion device and imaging device to change the imaging environment during the imaging session.

Abstract
An integrated imaging system is invented for creating an optimal imaging session by importing information in real time from several sources and using that information to automatically and continuously adjust the parameters of the imaging session so as to create the optimal session for the prescribed testing session.
