## Frequently Asked Questions

### Who can add or edit imaging centers?

Any user with access to Practice Settings can manage imaging centers. Changes apply to every user at the practice.

### Do I still need to contact Elation Support to add an imaging center?

No. Practices manage their own imaging centers through **Settings > Labs**. Contact Elation Support only if you need to set up an electronic results interface with an integrated imaging vendor.

### Where do these imaging centers appear?

Imaging centers you add appear in the **Center** dropdown on the Imaging Order Form. Select the company, then choose a specific location.

### Can I add multiple locations for the same imaging center?

Yes. Add a separate entry for each location, using the same **Company Name** and a distinct **Location Name** for each site. Users can then select the location from the second dropdown on the Imaging Order Form.
