    Abstract: A method captures radiographic images of a patient using a common geometric relationship relative to an x-ray source, the patient and a digital detector. Change in the patient's health is assessed based on determined changes in the radiographic images of the patient. A time to capture a next radiographic image of the patient is automatically scheduled using the common geometric relationship.
