Major operating modes
Gives the customer two modes for use and customization.Clinical mode is used by the radiologic technologist. i5 DR gives the user the full ability to acquire, stitch, review, alter, store, export, and print images. User may alter image acquisition parameters, if need be.
Service mode is available to the service technician to organize many details of the i5 DR software to suit a particular site.
Technologist’s functions
Status area on the screen always shows the name of the patient and the study that is open. A second status area shows the operations of the i5 DR system, including all Dicom operations.
Menu shows only the tools pertinent to the operation at hand; thus, the technologist‘s interface with the software is simplified.
Information about the flat panel detector is available at the touch of a button on the Main Menu. Battery and calibration status, among other measures, are shown.
Calibrations are available to be performed by the technologist – as permitted by the panel.
