DVD Use Cautions and Warnings
The DVD drive may not initialize if there is a DVD-R inserted in the drive when
the system is started. If this occurs, a message will appear after the hardware
initialization phase: DVD failed to initialize. Remove the DVD-R and reboot
the system. Allow the system to fully initialize before reinserting the DVD-R.
You can set the DVD drive to perform a verification pass when data is written.
However, the potential exists that a defective DVD-R can be created without
your knowledge. After storing a case to a DVD-R, do not delete it from the hard
drive before verifying that it was properly archived by first retrieving the case
from the DVD-R and then reviewing it.
To prevent the potential loss of data, always use a new DVD-R when archiving
patient cases to the DVD-R.
Do not share DVD-Rs from other non Volcano systems or computers with the
Volcano system; instead keep a separate supply of DVD-Rs just for the system.
If you save cases to DVD-Rs that were created on a different system or
computer, the potential for data corruption exists.
Archiving Using DICOM
DICOM stands for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine. It is an image
format for medical images that has been standardized so that images from different types
of medical electronic equipment can be shared on a common computer network. The
intravascular ultrasound images from your Volcano system can be sent to a network
within a hospital or clinic, or to a network of health care providers. Sending images to a
remote computer using a standardized format may be able to provide physicians with
quicker access to medical information for more rapid diagnoses and treatment decisions.
The DICOM Settings should be set up by either a Volcano Corporation Technical
Support representative or the Information Systems manager or network administrator at
your facility. For information on configuring the DICOM network, see Appendix C.
You can archive a case to a DICOM Server by clicking the Archive tab and selecting the
DICOM Network radio button.
Printing Images
