What readiness step is important before simulation imaging?

Before simulation imaging, confirming the imaging order is in the system, verifying the patient and treatment site match, and having the patient’s consent documented is essential. This triple-check ensures you’re imaging the correct patient at the correct site and that the patient understands and agrees to the procedure. It protects safety, keeps the workflow on track for planning, and avoids delays or miscommunication. Dietary restrictions aren’t a universal prerequisite for simulation imaging, and scheduling after the simulation would halt the necessary sequence.
