Introduction
QA templates are defined sets of tests that can customized and scheduled for the machines in your organization. These can be edited to fit the QA test regimen your clinic performs. You can create custom sets of tests to meet any institutional, local, or international standard. Templates allow for streamlined standardization across multiple machines.
Templates can also be shared across the user community. If you have a template that you think can be valuable to the community at large it can uploaded to the Template Library for other users to download. Templates shared in the Template Library can be viewed and evaluated. Templates, or individual tests within a template, that fit your organization's needs can be copied and saved to your account.
Only physicist administrators and account owners have the permissions to share and view shared templates. Template sharing can be disabled for an account by contacting Image Owl at support@imageowl.com.
To manage your QA Templates click the QA Templates link in the Manage page.
From the Templates page select the Template Library button.
