a plate reader.
When you work with a touch screen you require neither a mouse nor
keyboard for operation.
You can combine more than one plate reader and operators console to
form a system.
During exposure there is no mechanical connection between plates and
system, so that in the event of incorrect configuration or cassette use,
the system cannot, for instance, accurately show the status of a flipped
image or the assignment to a patient.
4.1.2 Possible configurations
One-console system with one plate reader
This configuration is the basic configuration for a PCR system. You can
work with or without being connected up to the hospital network.
Plate reader
Printer
PCR operator`s console
Hospital network
Multiple-console system with one plate reader
This configuration is the extended basic configuration. To achieve a
more efficient workflow, you can set up more than one operators con-
sole, e.g. in the various examination rooms and in patient admissions.
At the same time, the entire system is connected up to the hospital
network. The assignment of image plate to patient and vice versa is
always unique.

With configurations of this type you can read out any plate cassette on
any plate reader, regardless of the operators console on which you as-
signed the image plate, or with which console the patient data is
managed. After readout the image always comes to the operators con-
sole to which the image plate is assigned.

On any one operators console you can view, process, print and ex-

Server and client
If, in a multiple-console system with more than one plate reader, the
server is down, the system manager can convert the operators con-
soles which operate another plate reader into servers so that it is
possible to continue working with part of the system.
4.2 5tandard workflow
The following diagram shows the standard workflow with the PCR sys-
tem, by way of example. You will find alternatives to the described
assignment with the barcode reader in the rest of the manual.
The differences to conventional radiography are as follows:
Before radiography, you must assign the plate cassette to a view using
the barcode reader.
After radiography, you must read out the plate cassette in the plate
reader.
For filing purposes, you can print out the X-ray exposure or save it
on computer.

To read out an image plate you must
Check that the load lamp is lit on the control panel of the plate
reader.
Turn the cassette so that the side to be exposed faces down, and
the barcode window goes in first and faces up.
X
Slide the cassette into the cassette compartment straight along the
right feed edge.
Never insert the cassette like this:

The cassette slots into place. You will feel slight resistance when
inserting the cassette, which you must overcome.
The load lamp on the control panel of the plate reader goes out.
Image plate readout begins automatically.
Pull the cassette in a straight line and slowly out of the cassette
compartment.
The unload lamp goes out; the load lamp lights up.
The exposure which has been read out is added to the patients
exposures. Unless you have selected another patient or an-
other exposure for processing, the exposure which has been
read out appears on the monitor.

6.1.2 Perforning secondary erasure
Normally, the image plates are automatically erased after readout. If,
however, an image plate has not been used in the past 8 hours, so-called
secondary erasure is necessary. Here, the cassette is merely erased, and
not read out.
With time, the image plates absorb natural radiation, with the result
that images with low exposure levels have a higher noise component. In
applications with a low radiation dose you should therefore perform
secondary erasure on the image plate after prolonged storage.
Proceed as follows:
Insert cassette.
During erasure, the status display for cassette processing flashes.
On the monitor, a message concerning the plate reader mode
appears above the progress indicator. After erasure, the plate
reader automatically switches back into normal read mode, mean-
ing the erasure procedure only ever applies to one cassette.

When the unload lamp lights up, erasure is complete. The cassette
can be taken out and used for a new exposure.
6.1.3 Perforning prinary erasure
Normally, the image plates are automatically erased after readout. After
incorrect exposure, however, special, primary erasure is necessary. Here,
the cassette is merely erased, and not read out.

Proceed as follows:
The field beside it displays the primary erasure mode for the
next cassette to be inserted.
Insert cassette.
During erasure, the status display for cassette processing flashes.
After erasure, the plate reader automatically switches back into
normal read mode, meaning the erasure procedure only ever ap-
plies to one cassette.
When the unload lamp lights up, erasure is complete. The cassette
can be taken out and used for a new exposure.

6.2.4 Perforning secondary erasure
Normally, the image plates are automatically erased after readout. If,
however, an image plate has not been used in the past 8 hours, so-called
secondary erasure is necessary. Here, the cassette is merely erased, and
not read out.
With time, the image plates absorb natural radiation, with the result
that images with low exposure levels have a higher noise component. In
applications with a low radiation dose you should therefore perform
secondary erasure on the image plate after prolonged storage.
Proceed as follows:
Insert cassette.
Insert cassette.
Remove the cassette and enter the barcode with the correspond-
ing patient and examination data on the operator's console.
The pilot lamp on the control panel of the plate reader lights
up.
The plate reader begins the start-up procedure, which takes a short
time. Then the load lamp lights up.
The plate reader is ready when the green load lamp lights up.

As soon as the exposure is read out, it appears as a thumbnail (B) instead
of the barcode and has an orange frame. This indicates that it is precisely
this image that is maximized.

If, despite the processing options, the exposure is not suitable for
diagnosis and cannot be improved, you can reject the exposure.
Reject image quality of the exposure; you can give a reason.

10.4.9 Moving inages between exaninations
This function is only active in the Examination section.
The system supports moving an image from one view to another if you
have incorrectly assigned the barcode for the exposure on the plate cas-
sette, and did not realise your mistake until later.
If you realise your mistake before reading out the plate cassette, you can
reassign it using the barcode reader; if you do so, it is not necessary to
move the images afterwards.
In principle, this tool works in the same way as cut, copy and paste in
other software programs.
The following applies :
If the image to be moved has been rejected or has not yet been con-
firmed, it will be deleted in the source and stored in the destination
to which it is moved.
If the image has been confirmed, the original image will be copied
and the copy stored in the destination. The original image will be
marked to indicate that the image has been moved.
For safety reasons, when moved, all user changes will be deleted from
the image, and the destination view settings applied to the image,
e.g. rotated, flipped and collimated.
Moving an image from one examination to another on the same
patient
Examination
Select Examination section.
Select view.
Link all plates at the correct point using the barcode reader.
When stitching, you always move the bottom image. When working
with three images and "grabbing" the top cut edge, always move the
bottom two images as a unit.
The individual images are assembled to form a final image when you
quit the function with OK. This new image will be added to the
examination as a new view.
You can edit this image in exactly the same way as each individual
image.
Proceed as follows:
Select stitching.
The two or three partial images appear as an (as yet unfinished)
assembled image
If you are not happy with the result after applying a tool, you
can restore the original setup by pressing "Reset".

Viewports
A template is structured in lines and columns. Depending on the layout,
there are various options for adding a viewport to a template:
The first step is the same in all options:
Page orientation
If necessary, select the current layout orientation; "horizontal" or
"vertical"
Adding a column viewport
Select page by clicking on any spot on the page that is not also
an element of another page (viewport or text frame).
Add viewport
A new viewport is added at the top left of the template. The ex-
isting viewports are reduced so that all columns are the same
width.
Adding a line viewport
Select page by clicking on any spot on the page that is not also
an element of another page (viewport or text frame).
Add viewport
A new viewport is added at the top left of the template. The ex-
isting viewports are reduced so that all lines are the same width.
Adding a viewport to a column
Add viewport
A new viewport is added to the top of the column; the column
width stays the same. The existing viewports in the selected col-
umn are reduced so that all viewports in this column are the same
height.

lected column are reduced so that all viewports in this line are the
same width.
Manually magnifying or reducing a viewport
Please note: The template editor is programmed to make optimal use
of the space on the print medium. This means, for example, that re-
ducing the viewport height automatically increases the height of the
viewports below it in that column.
The first step is the same in all options:
Page orientation
If necessary, select the current layout orientation; "horizontal" or
"vertical"
Changing the height of a viewport
This means keeping the top border where it is and moving the lower
border. The viewport below it changes to the same extent as a result of
the top border moving. It is only possible to change the height of indi-
vidual viewports within the columns.
Increase/decrease height.
The bottom border moves down/up.
Please note:
You cannot move the bottom border of the last viewport in a
column downward; you can only increase its height by making
the viewport above it smaller.
Changing the height of a line of viewports
This means changing the height of all viewports within a line at the same
time.
Increase/decrease height.
The bottom border of all viewports in the selected line moves
down/up.
Please note:
You cannot move the bottom border of the last line downward;
you can only increase its height by making the line above it small-
er.
Changing the width of a viewport
This means keeping the left border where it is and moving the right
border. The viewport to the right of it changes to the same extent; the
left border of it is moved. It is only possible to change the width of
individual viewports within the lines.
Increase/decrease width.
The right border of the viewport moves to the right/left.
Please note:
The right border of the last viewport in a line cannot be moved

Changing the width of a column of viewports
This means changing the width of all viewports within a column at the
same time.
Increase/decrease width
The right border of all viewports in the selected column moves
to the right/ left.
Please note:
The right border of the last viewport in a column cannot be
moved to the right; you can only increase its width by reducing
the width of the viewport to its left.
Changing the reference number and calipers position of a viewport
All viewports in a template have a reference number which appears in
the preview. It defines the print sequence. All standard templates have
four calipers (one per side), which you can delete separately.

Medical-technical systems contain mechanical components which are
subjected to wear and tear due to operation.
The correct setting of the electromechanical and electronic assemblies
affects the functioning, image quality, electrical safety and exposure of
the patient and medical personnel to radiation.
Philips recommends:
that the user perform the tests indicated in the table on a regular
basis.
that you have the device serviced by the Philips Service Organization
at least once a year. You must have heavily used equipment serviced
more frequently.
In this way you avoid endangering the patient and you meet your ob-
ligations.
A service agreement with Philips will retain the value and safety of your
equipment. All the necessary maintenance, including the safety tests for
preventing hazards, and the necessary adjustments for optimum image
quality and minimum exposure to radiation, are performed at regular
intervals. By mutual agreement between you and Philips, service inter-
vals can be scheduled according to your individual needs, taking into
account local legislation. P

Unlock the cassette lid by slipping across the locks on the back
of the cassette, and open the lid.
Clean the top side first of all. Move the cleaning cloth over the
image plate gently, as follows:
Then turn over the image plate (X) and clean the other side.

Remove dust and dirt from both sides of the image plate, not only
from the phosphorescent side.
If specks of dirt cannot be removed by this method, moisten the
cleaning cloth with ethanol ("anhydride", 99.5%). Do not use
any other detergents besides this e.g. solvents. If you use ethanol,
bear the following in mind:
Next, place the image plate carefully back into the cassette with
the front of the plate facing the same direction as the front of the
cassette.
Before you close the cassette again, ensure that the image plate is
not jutting out of the cassette.
Lock the cassette lid by slipping across the locks on the back of
the cassette.

Philips manufactures state-of-the-art equipment in terms of safety and
environmental protection. Assuming no parts of the system housing are
opened and assuming the system is used properly there are no risks to
persons or the environment.
To comply with regulations it is necessary to use materials which may
be harmful to the environment and therefore have to be disposed of in
a proper manner.
For this reason you must not dispose of this equipment together
with normal industrial or domestic waste.
