Press the “Accept” button. Note that this does not take an X-Ray, but activates the system so
it is ready to take an image.
•
The CT systems has 2 modes - 2D imaging and 3D Imaging. The system defaults to 2D
mode initially and this is shown by the icon below. You can switch and go to 3D mode by
clicking the 3D icon.
•
With a sample in the X-Ray chamber, click the green X-Ray button in the bottom right-hand
corner of the software (shown above) or press the green X-Ray button on the touch panel to
start the exposure.
•
In 2D mode, when the exposure is complete the computer will process the data and after a
few seconds display two orthogonal images.
•
The 2D image series can then be sent to the PACS network by clicking the PACS Store icon,
assuming a PACS connection has been configured on the system. All images are
automatically
“save local”.
•
The button in the bottom left will show the send status. Do not shut down the system while the
images are still sending.
