Within the Examination module of Progress Notes there are a number of tabs that feature body images, on which you can illustrate. These illustrations are made using a set of drawing tools provided at the upper-right of the window, as shown in the following image. Later, you can review the illustrations you made for a given consultation when viewing previous Progress Notes.

The following table describes each of the tools provided
