Chapter 4 Controlling Monitor Quality
This product has the built-in Integrated Front Sensor, which allows the user to perform periodic calibration and
Grayscale Check for the monitor independently.
Attention
• When a panel protector (RP-903) is installed, the Integrated Front Sensor cannot be used. Do not execute “SelfCalibration”
or “Grayscale Check” of “RadiCS SelfQC”. Be sure to set “Meas. Frequency” to “Off”.
• When a panel protector (RP-913) is installed, the Integrated Front Sensor can be used. After installation, be sure to execute
correlation using RadiCS/RadiCS LE.
Note
• To perform advanced quality control that conforms to medical standards, use the optional monitor quality control software
kit “RadiCS UX1”.
• Perform correlation using RadiCS/RadiCS LE to adjust the measurement result of the Integrated Front Sensor to the
measurement result of the UX1 sensor for reference. Periodical correlation enables the measurement accuracy of the
Integrated Front Sensor equivalent to that of the UX1 sensor. For details, refer to RadiCS/RadiCS LE User’s Manual.
• “RadiCS” allows you to set the adjustment target for the calibration and judgment value for Grayscale Check, and also the
schedule for the calibration and Grayscale Check.
• The supplied “RadiCS LE” software also allows you to set the adjustment target and schedule for the calibration. For details,
refer to “RadiCS LE User’s Manual” (on the CD-ROM).
4-1. Executing Calibration
