CAPINTEC, INC CAPTUS® 2000Figure 8-21Choose Yes to delete all DICOPAC data and No to cancel the delete command and return tothe previous screen. The system will continue to accumulate patient data indefinitely. Thiswill eventually result in a very long library list to sort. A recommended procedure is toperiodically (monthly or quarterly) archive the patient data for reference, and then delete alldata from the DICOPAC Test library. Alternatively, if you do not need to archive patientresults, at the end of each quarter, print a hard copy report for each patient and then deleteall non active patients.Making MeasurementsAfter the counting protocol has been defined, and patient information entered, begin themeasurement process by choosing the COUNT button.
