Your provider would like you to perform this scan at home. Please do your best to follow the instructions.

This tutorial will walk you through what you need and what you need to do. You will need a pathway that is clear to walk 10 feet, with good bright lighting. The patient will need to sit still in the video for three seconds, get up walk and return to the chair. The video must have the body in view at all times.
