“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.”
Cindy Owen

Dame Edith Sitwell
“My soul, sit thou a patient looker-on; Judge not the play before the play is done: Her plot hath many changes; every day Speaks a new scene; the last act crowns the play”

William Shakespeare
