6 Installation of the imaging plate
system
Imaging plate system is formed of one or more
workstation that connects the imaging plate
scanner unit, software, accessories and
consumables.
Electronic equipment that does not fulfill medical
safety standards (office workstation, network
connecting units etc.) must not be installed in the
patient area. The definition of the patient area is
1,5 m in horizontal distance and 2.5 m in vertical
distance to the patient. The Scan eXam™ One
meets safety requirements of a medical electrical
unit and it can be installed also in the patient area.
6.1 Positioning the unit
Position the unit on a stable flat surface so that any
potential vibrations do not degrade the image
quality. The unit must not be positioned so that it is
touching other equipment. It must not be placed on
top of or under other equipment.
Do not position the unit in direct sunlight or near
bright light. Sunlight or bright light must not be
allowed to shine directly on the unit door into which
the imaging plates are inserted.
Typical location for a scanner unit in a shared use
by multiple operators is somewhere in a common
space for all users having an easy access to.
