Image acquisition
3.6.1
General
Explanation
When a digital X-ray image is acquired with SIDEXIS, the PC and the
SIDEXIS software must be prepared for the exposure in addition to the usual
operation of the X-ray tube assembly or panoramic unit. The PC must
therefore be made ready for exposure.
As soon as the PC is ready for exposure and SIDEXIS is ready to take an X-
ray, a dialog box appears on the monitor as control.
In an X-ray exposure, the dose area product can be entered immediately
following image creation. This value is then saved with the image.
3.6.2
Safety instructions
Once the new X-ray has been saved, it is displayed in a window on the
screen.
CAUTION
Before releasing radiation, the user should always ensure that the PC and
software are ready for exposure and that the correct patient is registered
in the system.
CAUTION
Since programs running simultaneously under Windows can interfere with
each other, it is recommended not to switch to another program as long as
exposures are being taken. Otherwise the consistency and reliability of
such exposures cannot be fully guaranteed.
CAUTION
Immediately after the X-ray is taken, the acquired image is automatically
saved to the patient database. This ensures a high level of data security.
