much better</div>

<div style="direction: ltr;">Good morning,</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;"><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">I an looking for some helpful tips and insights on acquiring ACR phantom images on the Digirad SPECT unit. I tested a Digirad X-act last week for the first time and followed the procedure that was provided by the company using the
large phantom. The images were no where close to submission quality. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">Thank you.</div>
