About Films 

 
The film digitizer handles standard 18cm x 24cm and 24cm x 30cm mammography films. 
 
You can feed multiple films (up to 50), and you can mix film sizes. 
 

IMPORTANT:

  Remove stickers, tape, staples, paper clips, etc. 

from films before scanning.  These may cause serious film 
feeding problems and may damage the digitizer’s internal 
mechanisms.  

Failure to remove extraneous items from 

films will void your warranty.

 

 
To prepare films for digitizing: 
 

  Stack each group of films according to the sequence specified by the CAD system 

manufacturer.  A typical sequence is shown below. 

 

  Place a separator in each group (not provided by VIDAR).  Use separators approved 

by the CAD system manufacturer. 

 

 

 

18cm long x 24cm wide film stack 

30cm long x 24cm wide film stack 

              or 

             or 

8” long x 10” wide film stack 

10” long x 12” wide film stack
