Slice planning
Plan on real localizers, exactly like the department console.
Three-plane localizers, draggable slice groups, angulation, saturation bands — the planning workflow is where console confidence is actually built, and it's fully simulated.

How it works
Three steps, on a real console workflow.
01
Run the localizer
Every exam starts the way real exams start — a three-plane scout that everything else is planned on.
02
Position the slice group
Drag, rotate and angulate the stack across all three planes; watch the coverage and orientation markers update live.
03
Check your coverage
Scan and read the result. Missed anatomy and wrong angulation are visible immediately — and free to correct.
Planning controls
| Control | Console behavior | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Slice group position | L/P/H offsets | Anatomy coverage |
| Angulation | Free rotation in-plane | True axial vs anatomy-aligned |
| Distance factor | 0–100% | Gap vs contiguous coverage |
| Phase direction | R»L / A»P swap | Artifact placement decisions |
In the classroom
How programs use it
- Grade planning screenshots: is the stack aligned to the AC-PC line?
- Set 'wrong plan' exercises — learners diagnose why anatomy was missed.
- Time planning drills: full head routine planned in under two minutes.
