prescanning
Pre-check image capture
Prescanning is scanning something before a main process or event.
Security personnel may do prescanning of bags before guests enter a venue.
In medical imaging, a prescan calibrates equipment before the diagnostic scan.
In computing, software prescans files to identify issues before full processing: The antivirus prescans downloads automatically.
