Part 3: Studies
3.6. Adding Cases to the Stack
You can add one or more cases anywhere in the stack. If you’re not in a hurry for the
case, add it to the bottom. If you’re in a hurry, add it to the top. (Cases at the top are
processed first.)
Note: This procedure can produce an alert indicating there were too few films for the
previous case. However, it is often faster to remove the films and produce the alert than
to wait for the films to be scanned and processed.
Important: Verify that cases you add to the stack conform to the selected scanning
protocol, or select the desired protocol before scanning the case.
X
To add cases to the stack
1
Prepare the cases to be scanned as described in ‘ 3.2. Preparing Cases to Be Scanned ’.

. The scanner will stop after it finishes
the current film.
Important: When you touch Stop , the system always resets to the default scanning
protocol. If the system generates an alert, touch OK in the pop-up window.
3
Remove the films and separator sheets from the feeder. Rebuild the stack in the order
you want to run the cases, making sure the films and separator sheets are in the
correct order.
•
If you want to run the new cases first, add them at the top of the stack.
•
If the system did not scan all the films from the last case, take the scanned films
from the output tray and put them together with the films that were not scanned.

Insert the new stack of cases into the feeder.
