Create a new study with name Calibration3D followed by the date XX/XX/XXXX of the day.
For the calibration using phantom Helix, it is necessary to follow MAN00034 – Angix Rotational
Angiography Operation Manual
As described in MAN00034 – Angix Rotational Angiography Operation Manual, Perform the horizontal
phantom alignment according to Figure 3.4.2e.
