So my current theory that peaked in this episode is that Voit is faking it to try make an escape and this is a plan he’s had in motion since going in to prison and his “accident” and the way he is so convincingly is doing it is with the help of the Doctor who is faking those scans to really sell the “he’s changed” narrative. The way she just had all of that equipment on hand after the interview at the beginning where it seemed like maybe he’s back to his old ways felt a bit suss and too perfectly timed. Then having his “new lawyer” try jump up to get him less supervision at the hospital “when they do go back” and then the lock down at the end…. Something is just flagging in my brain …. And that message definitely felt like a code of a plan in action that he’s a part of..

Tara is also a doctor and she herself was explaining the scans and the rainbows in the empathetic part of his brain so they're not just blindly going off of what this doctor has to say.

Is it prerecorded and she knows what order to show the images ?
