    Uploaded by

    The document discusses obtaining a patient history for ultrasound exams. It notes that for inpatients, the sonographer should check the patient's wristband, medical chart for past history and previous imaging/lab results, and ask about current complaints. For outpatients, the sonographer relies on the doctor's order and patient report for medical history, surgeries, and pertinent details like LMP for OB/GYN exams. The document stresses gathering relevant information to prepare for the exam and verify the correct patient and procedure.
