Air Techniques ScanX Intraoral, B7200, B7250 Digital Imaging System Instruction Manual

ScanX Intraoral, ScanX B7200 and ScanX B7250 are digital radiography systems that utilize reusable Phosphor Storage Plates (PSP) in place of X-ray film to produce diagnostic quality intraoral and extraoral digital radiographs. The ScanX produces a digital image by scanning PSPs, which have been exposed to X-rays. The ScanX allows computer storage, processing, retrieval and display of the computed radiographic images utilizing a user supplied software and computer. An additional feature of the ScanX consists of an in-line plate eraser function that removes the latent image from the plate immediately after scanning. This design provides an efficient one-operation scanning and erasing process leaving the user with a PSP ready for the next X-ray procedure.

Handle PSPs with Care.
K Avoid scratching or soiling PSPs.
K Do not bend PSPs or apply unnecessary pressure.
K Do not store PSPs in a hot or moist area.
K Protect the PSPs from direct sunlight and ultraviolet rays.
K Pick up the PSPs using two fingers around the edges to avoid unnecessary
contact with the plates.
CAUTION:
Always use a Barrier Envelope for each Intraoral plate.
Exercise care in handling the plate so as not to scratch the
sensitive surface or nick the edges.
Plate Protection
When storing or transferring PSPs use a Plate Transfer Box for Intraoral PSPs or
an X-ray Cassette for Extraoral PSPs.
Plate Transfer Box. Place the Intraoral PSP covered with a Barrier Envelope
into the Plate Transfer Box with the sensitive (front) side of the PSP facing down.
Note:
Cassettes must not contain intensifying screens when using PSPs.
X-ray Cassette. Place the Extraoral PSP into the appropriate X-ray Cassette
with the sensitive (front) side of the PSP towards the Tube-side of the cassette
and close cassette.
16
PLATE CARE & PREPARATION
IMPORTANT:
Note:
PSPs must always be erased prior to use.
Use PSPs within 24 hours of last erasure. Repeat erasing process if
PSPs have been stored longer than 24 hours.
Erase the PSP
Each Intraoral and Extraoral PSP should be used (i.e. X-ray exposed and
scanned) within 24 hours of erasure since natural radiation will add noise to the
PSP. Erase PSPs by simply using the ScanX In-Line Erase Feature. This can be
accomplished using one of two methods as follows:
Note:
Both erasing methods will result in an erased PSP suitable for reuse.
The user will not observe any difference in ScanX operation when using
either method.
Method #1
Perform the Imaging Procedures for Intraoral PSPs on page 20 or the procedures for Extraoral PSPs on page 22. Except when performing step 4 of
either Activate Scanner procedure, select the Erase option from the installed
authorized imaging software to activate the ScanX. This method does not
scan the plate and no image will be acquired.
Method #2.
Perform the normal Imaging Procedures for Intraoral PSPs on page 20 or
the procedures for Extraoral PSPs on page 22. This method scans the plate
and the imaging software may acquire a “junk image” (scanned latent
plate image) that should be subsequently deleted from the imaging software.
Cleaning Phosphor Storage Plates
For the best images, PSPs should be handled carefully and kept clean. Use the
following procedure to clean plates:
1. Use lint-free, 100% cotton gauze (not cotton balls). Gently wipe the cotton
gauze over the dry Plate surface. Wipe back and forth and then in a circular
motion.
2. To clean any remaining stains, dampen the gauze in denatured ethyl alcohol
(1% denaturant) and wipe using the same motion as above.
3. Completely dry the surface by wiping with another piece of cotton gauze.
Make sure that the PSP is completely dry before use.
Note:
IMPORTANT:
Do not soak overnight.
A 2% Gluteraldehyde solutions will not damage the PSP.
Disinfecting the Phosphor Storage Plates
There is no reason to routinely disinfect the PSPs unless contamination is suspected.
If a PSP has touched a contaminated surface, it may be immersed briefly in a
cold sterilant according to sterilant manufacturers directions. Do not emerse the
plate if there is any evidence of deep scratches in the surface of the plate or nicks
in the edges of the plate. After disinfection, clean and dry the plate using the
instructions above.
Disposal of Phosphor Storage Plates
Consult with your federal, national, state and local government, for rules and
regulations on disposal of Phosphor Storage Plates.
17
PLATE CARE & PREPARATION
Barrier Envelope Handling
Always guard against contamination by using standard infectious control procedures when handling individual barrier envelopes. It is best to discard suspected
contaminated envelopes since no cleaning or disinfection procedure exist or are
required for barrier envelopes.
2
The Barrier Envelope must be used
only once and disposed of properly in
accordance with local code.
Preparing Intraoral Plates for Patient Use
Insert the erased PSP into the Barrier Envelope so the printed side of the PSP is
visible through the transparent side of the envelope. Peel off the adhesive strip
and seal the envelope. See Figures 4a - 4c below.
Figure 4a
Insert the PSP.
Figure 4b
Peel off the adhesive strip.
Figure 4c
Seal the Barrier Envelope.
Optional SealX-2 Barrier Envelope Sealer
The SealX-2 Barrier Envelope Sealer for Size #2 Periapical X-ray Plates removes
the drudgery of manually encasing Phosphor Storage Plates (PSP) into barrier
envelopes for reuse. The SealX-2 effortlessly seals large batches of PSPs without
messy adhesives providing an uniform perfect seal every time. Contact your
authorized dealer for information.
SealX-2 benefits include:
• No fussing with tiny envelope seals
• Compact, lightweight table top unit
• Each spool contains 1500 barrier envelopes for Size 2 PSPs
18
INTRAORAL IMAGING PROCEDURES
Note:
1. The orientation letter “a”, printed on the PSP, may be used for reference
as you would use the dot on an intraoral X-ray film. In addition, a
backwards “a” (i.e. “a”), appearing in an image, is an indication that
the image has been flipped.
2. If using holders with alligator clips, it is advisable to file down the
points to avoid puncturing the Barrier Envelope. It is important to
take care not to puncture the Barrier Envelope or damage the PSP.
Take an X-ray Image
Put an image on the PSP by performing the following procedure.
1. Place the erased intraoral PSP in the sealed Barrier Envelope into the
patient's mouth exactly as you would use X-ray film. Make sure the opaque
side of the Barrier Envelope is facing the tubehead.
2. Take the exposure. The X-ray dose may typically be reduced by 80 - 85%
of that required for D-speed intraoral film (depending on X-ray system
used; the actual X-ray dose should be determined through experimentation).
3. Wearing gloves, remove the exposed PSP from the patient's mouth and
place to the side making sure the sensitive side of the barrier envelope is
facing away from any light source.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 as necessary to complete the patient's X-ray
series. When all necessay plates in the X-ray session have been exposed,
prepare each plate by performing the procedure below.
Preparing the Exposed Plate for Scanner Processing
1. Disinfect the Barrier Envelope (with plate still inside) and your gloves by
washing with disinfectant hand soap and water. Dry the Barrier Envelope
thoroughly.
2. Remove gloves and wash any powder from hands. Powder on a PSP will
degrade the image, and an accumulation of powder in the scanner will
lead to degradation of scanner performance.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure that the sensitive side of the PSP is facing down
when it lands inside the box (See Figure 5). If it is not
sensitive side down, TURN IT OVER IMMEDIATELY.
Failure to do so may result in erasure of the PSP.
3. Open the Plate Transfer Box with the lid
away from you. Then, remove the
exposed PSP from its washed and dried
envelope as follows:
a. Hold the enveloped exposed PSP, with
the printed side facing up, parallel to
and about an inch above the open
Plate Transfer Box.
b. Tear the envelope lengthwise starting
at the notch to eject the PSP into the
open Transfer Box. See Figure 5.
Figure 5
Ejecting a Plate into the
Plate Transfer Box
4. Bring the Plate Transfer Box with all the exposed PSPs properly prepared to
the ScanX. The PSP is now ready to be scanned to read the image from
the PS by performing the Intraoral Imaging Procedures.
19
INTRAORAL IMAGING PROCEDURES
Configure the Intraoral Plate Guides. If the desired Plate Guides are not
in place, install these Guides at this time. Do not operate the scanner without a
full complement of four Guides in place. Any combination of Guides may be
used. See Figure 6.
Figure 6. ScanX with a full Complement of Plate Guides in Place.
IMPORTANT:
Transfer the PSP from the Plate Transfer Box to the
Plate Guide slot quickly. Always keep the sensitive side
away from any light source to minimize image loss.
Activate Scanner
Activate the ScanX by performing the following procedures.
1. Make sure the ScanX and computer components are correctly connected
as shown in Figure 1.
2. Switch the scanner from Standby to ON by pressing the membrane READY
switch ( ) located on the Keypad Control Panel on the top of the scanner.
3. Verify that both the green and blue LED indicators above the READY and
ERASER switches, respectively, illuminate. (Default mode has eraser ON.)
Note:
Change in motor noise pitch levels is normal when switching to different
resolution setting selections.
4. Use the user-supplied authorized Imaging
Software to activate the Scanner and to select
the desired image type and resolution.
5. Verify that the four Scanner track indicators
illuminate green when the Scanner has been
activated, indicating that PSPs can be fed
into the corresponding Plate Guide.
Scanning and Erasing Plates
Scan and erase an intraoral PSP in one operation by
performing the following procedures.
1. Carefully open the Plate Transfer Box.
2. Grasp a PSP by long edges between your
thumb and index finger. See Figure 7.
3. With printed side facing you, carefully and
quickly insert the PSP into the corresponding
Plate Guide slot as far as possible.
4. Immediately press the PSP all the way down
with your fingertip (from position Figure 8 to
position Figure 9) until the scanner's transport mechanism takes over and the PSP
moves down on its own.
5. Verify that the track light illuminates yellow,
indicating the Plate Guide slot is in use, the
PSP has been sensed and the Scanner is
transporting the PSP.

Note:
Up to four PSPs can be processed simultaneously. One PSP can be
inserted into each Plate Guide at a time as long as the corresponding
track indicator light is illuminated green. The next PSP may be fed into
a Plate Guide slot only after the corresponding track indicator LED
changes from yellow to green.
6. Observe that a red glow eminates from the scanner exit slot.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 to process additional PSPs as necessary. Another
PSP may be fed into any Plate Guide slot as long as the track indicator light
illuminates green.
8. Observe that each scanned and erased PSP drops into the receiving tray
at the bottom of the scanner. Since the ScanX default operation is with the
erase mode enabled (blue LED indicator above the ERASER switch is
steadily illuminated), each PSP is erased and ready for reuse.
9. Observe that all transport indicators illuminate green and the red glow
from the exit slot extinguish after the last PSP drops to the tray.
CAUTION:
Always use exercise care in handling the PSPs so as not to
scratch the sensitive surface or nick the edges.
10. Retrieve the processed (scanned and erased) PSPs for reuse or storage.
Make sure not to scratch the sensitive surface or nick the edges when
removing from the scanner outlet.
11. View and save each scanned image using the user-supplied authorized
