Philips Azurion - 6.4 Acquiring Images; 6.4.1 System Readiness

6.4 Acquiring Images
Y
ou can acquire uoroscopy images or exposure images. Exposure images are automacally stored, but
you can also manually store uoroscopy images.
When acquiring images, the X-ray protocol sengs in use are displayed in the status area in the control
room and the examinaon room.
You cannot perform uoroscopy and exposure at the same me. However, when using a biplane
system, you can perform either uoroscopy or exposure on both channels simultaneously.
You can only acquire images when the system is ready to do so. For more informaon, see System
Readiness (page 79).
