• MODALITY SERVERS capture images from digital or video MODALITIES. They have the ability to add annotation to the images and develop STUDIES that include patient demographic data. The STUDIES are converted to DICOM 3.0 and

sent to WORKSTATIONS, ARCHIVES, and PRINTERS or PRINT SERVERS on the network. See Figure 1–2

• PRINT SERVERS receive DICOM 3.0 print-class images from remote users on a DICOM/Ethernet NETWORK, convert these images to the protocol required by a local PRINTER, and send the images to the PRINTER.

Note

The MIM 200 can operate as both a MODALITY SERVER and PRINT SERVER. When it is set up to do so, it is identified as a COMBINATION BOX. The MIM 200 1.2 GHz only functions as either a MODALITY SERVER or a PRINT SERVER, but not a COMBINATION BOX.

A COMPUTER using Windows 2000 and application software from Kodak controls and processes the functions of the MIM.

Special purpose INPUT and OUTPUT BOARDS are added to the COMPUTER for external communication.

The MIM does not include a MONITOR, KEYBOARD or MOUSE. For access to the MIM for service, the FE must connect:

• A LAPTOP COMPUTER, or

• A MONITOR KIT that includes a MONITOR, KEYBOARD, and MOUSE.

8E8820 – NOV 2003 1-7

SERVICE MANUAL

MODEM for Remote Service Access

To provide FEs with remote access, an optional MODEM can be included in MIMs. For MIMs manufactured with V_6.1 software, an external MODEM is used. An external MODEM is used on the MIM 100 when installed outside the U.S. or Canada.

An internal MODEM BOARD is used in the MIM 100 within the U.S. and Canada.

If 2 or more MIMS are connected on an Ethernet NETWORK, a MODEM is necessary for only one of the MIMs. To connect to a MIM without a MODEM, the FE makes a call to the MIM with the MODEM. The call can then be routed to any other MIM on the network.

User Control

Operators use either a KEYPAD or a host control CONSOLE to acquire images, select output destinations, and print the images.

There is a separate KEYPAD or host control CONSOLE for each directly-connected MODALITY.

MIMs can use 3 types of KEYPADS:

• TOUCHSCREEN KEYPAD - Used to control STUDY creation from a directly-connected MODALITY. This KEYPAD provides a number of features, including patient demographic acquisition for STUDY delivery to WORKSTATIONS and

ARCHIVES. Only this KEYPAD can be used to send STUDIES to DICOM store destinations.

• PRINT KEYPAD - Used to control STUDY creation from a directly-connected MODALITY for delivery to print-only destinations such as LASER PRINTERS and LASER IMAGERS.

• DISPLAY KEYPAD - Used only for setup and STUDY management for a MIM operating as a PRINT SERVER, for which there is only a DICOM interface for STUDY acquisition.

For more information on user control, see the User’s Guides for the MIMs.

HIPPA Privacy Feature

V_6.1 MIM software, includes a privacy feature that allows MIM users to comply with requirements of the Health Insurance

Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA). When the privacy feature is enabled, keypad operators must log in with a username and password to use keypad functions that provide access to patient protected health information. The privacy features are controlled from a “security console” web page that is resident on each MIM. A customer security administrator, working on a computer connected to the same local area network as the MIM, can access the “security console” web page to setup username/ password accounts for each MIM keypad operato r.

“MIM Service Application” Software

The “MIM Service Application” can be used by FEs to:

• Enter parameters for configuration of a MIM during installation.

• Do system management functions, such as backup and restore of configuration parameters.

• Do diagnostics such as viewing logs, running tests, and monitoring operation of the system.

The “MIM Service Application” is stored on the LAPTOP COMPUTER as well as in the MIM. For more information on this and other tools for service, refer to Section 2, Tools - Hardware and Software.

Service Access

The MIM does not include a MONITOR, KEYBOARD or MOUSE. For access to the MIM for service, the FE must:

• Connect a LAPTOP COMPUTER, or

• Connect a MONITOR KIT that includes a MONITOR, KEYBOARD, and MOUSE.

The MONITOR KIT connects directly to PORTS on the MIM. The LAPTOP COMPUTER can connect to the MIM:

• Over a dial-up serial line connection.

• Over an Ethernet network. The LAPTOP COMPUTER must contain an Ethernet interface for this connection.

• Over a dial-up telephone line using a MODEM.

1-8 NOV 2003 – 8E8820

System Description

When the LAPTOP COMPUTER is connected to a MIM, the FE can use it to run the “MIM Service Application.” Also, via

pcANYWHERE, the FE can use Windows FEATURES such as Windows EXPLORER, Windows EVENT VIEWER, and

Windows TASK MANAGER on the target MIM.

Note

The MONITOR KIT can also be used for service access:

• The “MIM Service Application” can be run with the MONITOR KIT because the service software is stored on the MIM as well as on the LAPTOP COMPUTER.

• The MONITOR KIT can be used to watch the boot process and access the BIOS on the MIM.

When a MONITOR KIT is used, a LAPTOP COMPUTER with “SecureLink” is also required to unlock the Windows

DESKTOP.

LAPTOP COMPUTER

This primary service tool includes Windows 98, Windows 2000 or Windows NT SOFTWARE, an Ethernet

BOARD, and a MODEM. The LAPTOP COMPUTER can connect to the MIM with a SERIAL CABLE, a

MODEM or a local area network. It is used to run the “MIM Service Application,” which is used to configure the

MIM, run diagnostics, view the logs, and do other functions.

MONITOR KIT

The MONITOR, KEYBOARD, and MOUSE in this KIT connect to the MIM, and can directly access the

Windows 2000 DESKTOP and the MIM files, including the logs. The MONITOR KIT is used to configure the

MIM BIOS and to diagnose MIM database or hardware/Windows 2000 problems that the “MIM Service

Application” cannot diagnose. Because the “MIM Service Application” is stored in the MIM as well as on the

LAPTOP COMPUTER, the Service Application can be accessed directly in the MIM with the MONITOR KIT.

SERVICE MANUAL

Preparing to Apply Power

Setting Up the MIM

Set up the MIM for application of power as follows:

• The MIM 200 (667 MHz) and the 25 PS have a 115/230 V POWER SWITCH, located on the rear of the MIM adjacent to the POWER CONNECTOR. Set this SWITCH to the correct position for the site.

Note

Later MIM 200s (2.4 GHz and 1 GHz) and the MIM 100 do not include the 115/230 V SWITCH. They include “Autosensing” circuits which automatically set the MIM for the correct source voltage.

• The MIM 200 and the 25 PS are provided with a UPS, for either 115 or 230 V operation. A UPS is optional with the MIM

100. Connect the UPS to the MIM and to source power using the instructions included with the UPS.

Important

The UPS for the 25 PS is a “smart” unit. It includes software which allows communication with the 25 PS. If a source power failure occurs, the UPS provides battery backup for the 25 PS for about 1 minute (adjustable) to allow the 25 PS to shut down its processes in order. Then, about 7 or 8 seconds later, the UPS turns off.

De-energizing the MIM

[1] Shut down the MIM either from the KEYPAD or from the “MIM Service Application.” The MIM 200 and 25 PS will power off automatically.

[2] For the MIM 100: De-energize the MIM by pressing the POWER SWITCH off after the KEYPAD indicates that it is safe to do so. The power light will turn off.

Energizing the MIM

After all components have been set up and CABLES have been connected, apply power to the system:

[1] Energize the UPS, if the system includes one.

[2] For all MIMS except the 25 PS:

(a) Energize the MIM by pressing the POWER SWITCH on. The power light will turn on.

(b) If the MIM has been set up, check the KEYPAD for a “Ready” indication. Start-up to “Ready” can take up to 6 minutes.

[3] For the 25 PS: Energize the 25 PS by pressing the POWER SWITCH on the POWER STRIP to the on position.

Upgrading MIM Software

Setting Up the BIOS

BIOS Setup Functions

Version 6.1 software is on a CD-ROM for all MIMs. For all MIMs using software stored on CD-ROM, the BIOS must be set up to boot from CD-ROM. MIM 200s below serial number 100600 were set up to boot from the HDD DRIVE. Before V_6.1 software can be loaded on any MIM 200 below serial number 100600, the BIOS for the MIM must be set up to boot from CD-

ROM. For many of these MIMs, the BIOS was changed when Version 5.0 or 5.2 MIM software was loaded. However, if you are upgrading a MIM200 in this group that currently has a software level below Version 5.0, check the Boot options in the BIOS and change if necessary.

The following pages provide procedures for setting up the BIOS in the following devices:

• Kodak PACS LINK MEDICAL IMAGE MANAGER 200 (MIM 200) - Both 1 GHz and 667 MHz

• Kodak PACS LINK 25 PRINT SERVER (25 PS)

• Kodak PACS LINK MEDICAL IMAGE MANAGER 100 (MIM 100)

Note

Setting up the BIOS to boot from CD-ROM normally involves only changing the settings that select the first and second boot devices. CD-ROM must be selected to be the first boot device and the HARD DRIVE to be the second. But if the BIOS is corrupt, all settings will have to be checked.

Table 4–1 shows general options that are available during BIOS setup.

MIM Privacy Feature

Introduction

MIM software includes a Privacy feature that customers can use to prevent unauthorized users of a MIM from printing or storing patient data. This feature allows customers to comply with the U. S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act

(HIPPA). The Customer can elect to either enable or disable the privacy feature. If the Privacy feature is enabled, the customer can set up user accounts that will require each authorized MIM operator to login at a KEYPAD with a user name and password.

The Privacy feature is controlled from a “Security Administrator Console” (SA Console).The SA Console is a web page on the

MIM that can be accessed using Internet Explorer or other web browser. Each MIM unit has its own Security Administrator web page. Usually the customer's Security Administrator will access the SA Console web page from a COMPUTER connected on the same local area network as the target MIM. The SA Console contains several screens that are used to comfigure the Privacy functions to meet customer requirements.

A service provider can also access the Security Administrator Console using a MONITOR KIT if he/she has Security

Administrator privledges. Starting Internet Explorer from the MIM desktop automatically brings up the Security Administrator

Console web page.

For detailed instructions for using the Security Adminitrator Console, see User Guide 8E9002 - Security and Privacy Features for the MIM 100, MIM 200 and 25 PS.

Accessing the Security Administrator Console from a Remote COMPUTER

To open the SA Console for a MIM you must have:

• A remote COMPUTER connected on the same network a the target MIM

• The IP Address of the target MIM

• The username and password for the SA Console on the target MIM

On a newly installed V_6.0 and above MIM or after V_6.0 and above software is installed on a MIM, the username and password are:

• Username: SA

• Password: PASSWORD

Access Procedure

[1] Connect your LAPTOP COMPUTER or other COMPUTER with Internet Explorer to the same network as the MIM.

[2] Launch Internet Explorer.

[3] In the Internet Explorer Address Box, type in http://aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd where aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd is the IP Address of the

SERVICE MANUAL

Note

You can zoom in on the transition by placing the cursor on the area and clicking the left mouse button. You can use the right mouse button to zoom back out.

[7] See Figure 7–11 to determine whether compensation needs to be increased or decreased. Note that the HF (High

Frequency) adjustment affects primarily the first pixel after the transition, and the LF (Low Frequency) adjustment affects multiple pixels after the transition.

[8] Change compensation values in small increments in the LF or HF Cable Compensation box. Never increase or decrease a value by more than 10 before viewing the results.

Note

The range of adjustment is 0 - 255, and the normal setting for both HF and LF compensation is 128. Decreasing the compensation number will increase the amount of compensation. Increasing the number will decrease the amount of compensation.

[9] After changing compensation values, click [Set, Acquire and Plot] to view the results.

[10] Run Auto Setup again (see page

7 – 31 ) and check for ghosting again.

Checking Image Quality

[1] After Auto Setup and the cable compensation adjustment (if performed), select [Acquire] at the “Video Board Setup” window to display a test image.

[2] Select a Region of Interest (ROI) and display the uncompressed ROI image:

(a) Use the MOUSE to click-and-drag a rectangle around an ROI: You must drag the MOUSE from the top-left position of the ROI to the bottom-right position of the ROI.

(b) Release the MOUSE click. The uncompressed image displays.

Important

• If this is color video, check each of the Red, Green, and Blue pixels in the following steps.

• To determine pixel values, check the “Pixel Value” window while you move the cursor across the image.

• You might have to execute more than 1 acquire to evaluate the quality of the image.

• To make a histogram, do Step 2 again within the existing uncompressed image.

• You can right click the MOUSE to zoom on a specific area of the ROI.

[3] Check the properties for the test image:

• Correct Gain and Offset:

Brightest white: Pixel value of 253 + 2 counts

Darkest Black: Pixel Value of 2 + 2 counts

Visible 5% and 95% grayscale values if you display the SMPTE pattern.

• Centered horizontally and vertically

• Correct clock timing: No visible pixel shift or line shift

• Straight, undistorted horizontal and vertical lines

• Clear text. Ask the operator to type more text, if necessary.

8E8820 – NOV 2003 7-35

Minimum grayscale counts not 2 + 2 counts.

Pixel shift or line shift in the vertical lines or in the text of the image.

The acquired image does not include all of the image information that the

MODALITY monitor displays.

Image is too high or too low on film.

Blurred text.

Remedy

In the “Video Gain and Offset Parameters” window: Adjust the values for

Coarse Gain and Coarse Offset. Adjusting by 1 count will change pixel value by approximately 3-4. Adjust the values for “Fine Gain” and “Fine Offset.”

Adjusting by 3 counts will change pixel value by approximately 1. (If using color video, adjust the values of each color separately.) Increasing the “Gain” will cause the white pixel counts to increase without affecting the black pixels.

Increasing the “Offset” will cause the white and black pixel counts to increase.

Check that the MONITOR of the MODALITY displays the correct test image.

Execute [Auto Setup] again. Ask the operator to add more text to the image if you do not have sufficient text to evaluate.

In the “Video Vertical Parameters” window, adjust the values for the “Images

Lines / Frame.” In the “Video Horizontal Parameters” window, adjust the values for the “Image Pixels / Line.” Increasing these values will increase the area of the image that the VIDEO INTERFACE BOARD requires.

In the “Video Vertical Parameters” window: Adjust Vertical Back Porch for

VIDEO 150. Adjust Vertical Shift for VIDEO 60 and 150LC.

In the “Video Vertical Parameters” window, swap fields.

Notes on Adjusting Image Quality

Optimum image quality can be achieved from the MIM by adjusting the video signal and parameters. In a video environment, the process begins with a good video signal. This signal must then be adjusted in the MIM. Check that you have done the following:

• Use the correct parameters to acquire the video signal for digitization.

• Check that the image is centered correctly - both vertically and horizontally.

• Set the gain and offset correctly to obtain the correct black and white values. See “Defining Black and White Values (Using the Advanced Leveling Feature)”.

• The pixel clock must be correctly timed with the data signal pixels.

The VIDEO INTERFACE BOARDS have an Auto Setup feature that will accomplish this setup when the correct video signal is provided. When the algorithm has completed, check the image for the correct values for gain and offset. For optimum quality in monochrome images, the black value should be 2 ±2 and the white value should be 253 ±2. If the adjustment is for color images, these values should be 1 -1/+0 (0 or 1) for black and 254 +1/-0 (254 or 255) for white. Check these values in the red, green and blue color plane for the correct values.

“Advanced Leveling” is a feature of the VIDEO 60 and 150LC INTERFACE BOARDS. It allows the user to choose a position for black and white values. Normally, the MIM uses the entire image to find a part that it calls black and white. When a

MODALITY provides a computer-generated grayscale, the black and white points can be selected from it. This will provide a known black and white point for the MIM to use to adjust gain and offset. After this algorithm runs, you should check the images for the proper gain and offset values. This feature can be especially useful for Ultrasound images and can be used for images from all MODALITIES. See “Using Advanced Leveling to Define Black and White Values.”

• Print a page of images to check that the timing is correct.

• Check that transitions from black to white are sharp and clear.

• Print a curve series, contrast series, or color print matching series.

In versions of software prior to V_3.2, only the curve series or the color print matching series could be run. The curve series is used for the 2180 and 1120 LASER PRINTERS. Different contrast settings will produce a different looking image when printing the curve series. 11 contrast settings can be used. The user can select from 6 curve shape prints for each contrast setting.

The contrast series is used for all Kodak DryView LASER IMAGERS and any IMAGERS connected to the 9410

ACQUISITION SYSTEM. The correct TFT/ULUT (Transfer Function Table/Universal Look Up Table) should be selected before printing this contrast series. The user can select from 16 images in the series. The 160 LASER IMAGER requires the use of this contrast series to adjust image quality.

Setting the curve shape and the contrast settings depends on the MODALITY. Some Autofilming links will send the values to use, and some will use the default settings in the MIM.

The contrast setting could be sent with the DICOM information, but defaults in the MIM are used in case these values are not sent. In versions below V_3.2, only one default value was used by all Service Class Users (SCUs). Starting with V_3.2, the default values for each SCU can be set at the MIM.

Starting with V_3.2, the SCU sends the MODALITY type, body part, and image tone adjustment information to the print and storage destinations. The MODALITY type can be set up using the “MIM Service Application” and the body part (if series is enabled) can be selected at the TOUCHSCREEN KEYPAD. The MODALITY type and body part information is useful when sending to storage destinations to enable hanging protocols and features of certain WORKSTATIONS. MODALITY type is useful when sending DMI print destinations through the network to select image processing techniques.

Discriminators are characters that you can associate with each piece of patient information (patient name, patient ID, etc.) to tell the BAR CODE READER which type of information you have scanned.

To use discriminators, you must have a symbol(s) or a special character as part of the patient information. You configure the

MIM to read and understand the symbol(s) or special characters when scanned with the BAR CODE READER.

For example, if you associate the character “%” with patient names, the customer can scan the BAR CODE LABEL with the patient name, and the name automatically populates the

Patient Name field. Using discriminators eliminates the need for the customer to highlight the appropriate field before they scan the LABEL.

SERVICE MANUAL

Parameter

Minify/Scale

Descriptions

Select Minify/Scale to enable both minification and scale reduction and applies the appropriate method, where:

• Minify: reducing the raw physical image to a new smaller physical size maintaining the aspect ratio of the original image (removing pixel data). An image might be minified if the image size is larger than the media in the laser imager.

• Scale: reducing Requested Image Size to a smaller size that can be successfully printed. An image might be scaled if the requested image size cannot be magnified to the full size requested. The full image is printed but the size of the image is reduced to allow it to print on the media that is closest to the requested size.

Crop

Minify/Scale is the default.

Select Crop when using Requested Image Size to remove the image’s perimeter to allow the image to fit on the media and print the same scale as the anatomical area of interest.

Cropping: Removing image data from the outer edges of the image so that it fits on the printable film area maintaining aspect ratio. Cropping allows “true size” printing for larger images. True size printing provides a common scale between images captured on analog systems that use medical x-ray film exposed by phosphor screens in cassettes and printed digital images. The anatomical area of interest is printed at the same size that it is captured on the analog system.

Text Box Relocation

Caution

With cropping, the edges of the image file are removed. If anatomical areas of interest are near an outer image edge, they might be removed from the image when it is printed. Do not use cropping for images with areas of interest near the edges or corners.

Allows patient and exam information to be cut and placed back in a cropped image.

Caution

• When Top or Bottom is selected, the corners are cut and placed back into the cropped image.

If anatomical areas of interest are near the image corners, image data might be skewed or obscured if the corner areas are moved. If anatomical areas of interest are near an image corner, select None before you print.

• Patient and exam information in any area but the top or bottom corners is not supported.

Depending on the location, the information might be cropped from the image.

Setting Up Print Server for True Size Printing - Cropping of Images

When a DICOM modality such as CR or DR uses “requested image size” to send an image to the printer that is beyond the range of the printer, MIM can crop the image so that it fits on the film achieving true size. In some cases, a site may wish to print only some of the films from the modality using true size printing (cropping) and some films without cropping.

Caution

With cropping, the edges of the image file are removed. If anatomical areas of interest are near an outer edge of the image, they might be removed from the image when it is printed. Do not use cropping for images with the areas of interest near the edges or corners.

Important

To set up using both cropping and non cropping, it is necessary to create 2 destinations at the SCU with the same IP address and port, giving 2 unique AE Titles for the destinations. Determine if a customer wants to print using both cropping and non-cropping from a modality.

Setting Up the SCU for Cropping

[1] Send an image from each SCU to record its IP Address.

[2] At the “MIM Service Application” window, select Configure>SCP Services.

[3] From the “List of Connected SCUs”, select the correct SCU and click [Modify].

[4] Click [Other Printer Options], and select “Crop” under “Image Resizing”.

[5] Check “Always Apply”.

[6] Select “Top” or “Bottom” under “Text Box Relocation” depending on the location of the text, if text on image will be saved and relocated.

Definitions

Note

Do not confuse a TFT set with a TFT. Image quality is significantly affected by the single, specific TFT that was used in making a print. Image quality is totally unaffected by the other TFTs in the set. The TFT set is simply a container, and all of its contents may not be useful or correct for a given MODALITY or a given density setting. In fact, some TFT sets are quite diverse. They offer a wide variety of looks within a single set of 15 TFTs. Some TFTs in a given TFT set may be completely unacceptable to a customer for a specific MODALITY, while one may be just right. That is, it is preferable to any other TFT in any other TFT set.

TFT: A table (curve) used in closed-loop Kodak DryView LASER IMAGERS that relates each digital input value to a corresponding target value of perceived brightness.

TFT Set: A set of 15 TFTs that represent 15 different curve shapes, each of which is associated with a corresponding userselectable contrast selection (1-15).

Contrast: A user-selectable setting from 1 through 15 on the LASER IMAGER that initiates the associated TFT for the current print.

Density: A user-selectable setting that determines the maximum density (Dmax) used in printing.

ULUT: The tables, or curves, that are used in Kodak DryView 8300, 8600, and 8610 LASER IMAGERS.

Selecting TFT Sets

When selecting a TFT for a given MODALITY, first try the contrast and density settings for the TFT set suggested in the following table. The selections shown there are recommended for the majority of users. Other selections are useful in certain situations, depending on radiologist preference, etc.

When determining with the customer which TFT set to select, it is important to print using all of the available TFTs, by using all 15 contrast settings or doing one contrast test film. It is equally important to note the specific contrast setting (i.e., the specific

TFT) and the TFT set that best satisfies the customer. Similar or identical individual TFTs may occur in multiple TFT sets. For example, in VER693C0, the popular perceived linear TFT 6 is essentially the same as TFT 9 of PMSV3K and is also similar to

TFT 8 of C3B5AX4. Where more than one TFT set contains a TFT that is satisfactory to the customer, deciding which set to install should be based on the set that gives the customer more usable choices on a contrast test.

TFT Set Descriptions

The following are the TFT set choices available for use with 969, 8500, 8700, 8100, and 8200 LASER IMAGER and 8800

MULTI-INPUT MANAGER applications.

AIRIS2A: Designed to meet Hitachi requirements for a TFT set which, when used for printing on Kodak DryView films, can perceptually match films printed on a 969 HQ (wet) LASER IMAGER when TFT Set VER693C0 (with Contrast=6 and

Dmax=3.0) is used in the HQ.

To accomplish this, the AIRIS2A TFT Set is designed for overall similarity to the VER693C0 TFT Set, but provides slightly lower measured densities in the darker part of the density range. Specifically, in the AIRIS2A Set, the Contrast=8 TFT is designed to provide dry prints which perceptually match the Contrast=6 wet prints made using VER693C0 on an HQ, with

Dmax=3.0 for both prints.

The plots of this TFT Set (see the chart below) show that all 15 of the tables have the same mid-tone brightness, with varying degrees of an S-shape which gives the strongest end-points contrast (slope) to Table 12 and the strongest mid-tone contrast to

Table 15. Note that this TFT Set provides a narrower range of curves than the VER693C0.

B3C5AX4: Allows moderate departures from the basic VER693C0 curves. Curves 2, 5, 8, 11 and 14 roughly cover the span of

VER693C0. The remaining curves provide more mid-tone brightness choices (curves 1, 4, 7, 10, and 13 = the brightest, and curves 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 = the darkest). In all, there are 5 mid-tone contrast choices for each of 3 mid-tone brightness choices

The plots on the chart show the two-dimensional brightness/contrast combinations provided by this TFT Set. The numbering of the TFTS in the set is such that when a 3 (horizontally) x 5 (vertically) contrast test film is printed, the printed images are of decreasing brightness going from left to right and increasing mid-tone contrast going from top to bottom on the film.

C3B5AX4: Allows moderate-to-strong departures from the basic VER693C0 curves. Curves 7 through 9 cover roughly the span of VER693C0 and the remaining curves provide more choices of mid-tone brightness: Curves 1 through 3 = the brightest, and curves 13 through 15 = the darkest. In all, there are 3 mid-tone contrast choices for each of 5 mid-tone brightness choices.

The plots on the chart show the two-dimensional brightness/contrast combinations provided by this TFT Set. The numbering of the TFTS in the set is such that when a 3 (horizontally) x 5 (vertically) contrast test film is printed, the printed images are of decreasing brightness going from top to bottom and decreasing mid-tone contrast going from left to right on the film.

FCR302C4: Created specifically for use with the 3M Model 2210 CREIB interface to a Fuji Computed Radiography system.

This TFT set should not be used for any other application. The 15 TFTs in this set are designed to be used in correspondence with the 15 Dmax choices of the IMAGER (using Contrast 1 when the first Dmax setting is used, etc.). The plots in the chart

MAXXUS: Created specifically for use with the YMS SPECT to match Konica film. All 15 curves are very close to a single curve. The MAXXUS TFT Set provides a set of tables suitable for certain nuclear medicine applications, specifically, to provide a relatively flat (low contrast) curve shape in the brightest portions of an image. This minimizes the visibility of soft tissue in a bone nuclear medicine image in which bone is printed as black on a white background. This is a relatively tight TFT set, offering limited variation with contrast setting.

MSFDUP1: Designed to meet the density printing requirements of a TFT-based LASER IMAGER for Kodak that is used as the

PRINTER in a DUPLICATOR for Kodak equipped with a MULTI-SHEET FEEDER. The 15 individual TFTs of this TFT set are designed to map 15 different Dmin and Dmax nominal input ranges (original film) into the full density range of the imager

(approximately 0.2 to 3.1, for Kodak DryView Blue film).

Example: If the original film is a blue-based film from a LASER IMAGER, with a film Dmin of about 0.2 and a printed Dmax of about 3.0, a reasonable contrast setting for duplicating this film would be 11. However, since these input density ranges are approximate, other “similar” settings (6 in this example) could give optimal results from a user perspective.

PMSB: Developed as a slight modification to the PMSV3K TFT Set that was previously developed for Philips Medical Systems.

This set was created by adjusting the t-values within the PMSV3K TFT Set so that when using Contrast 9 of the PMSB TFT Set match, the densities print, as accurately as possible, the latest target densities requested by Philips Medical Systems. All 15 of these tables have essentially the same mid-tone contrast (slope), but have a wide variety of brightnesses with contrast setting 1

= the darkest image and contrast setting 15 = the brightest.

PMSV3K: A set of non-S-curve TFTs, with mid-tone density gradually decreasing as the TFT number (contrast setting) is increased. This set was originally requested by Philips Medical Systems who preferred saggy curve shapes to the S-shaped curves of VER693C0 and VER713C0. All 15 of these tables have essentially the same mid-tone contrast (slope), but have a wide variety of brightnesses with contrast setting 1 = the darkest image and contrast setting 15 = the brightest.

SIECT87: A set in which all 15 curves are very close to a single, Siemens-defined curve for CT. The following plots of this TFT

Set show a shape which is close to a “linear in brightness” shape and quite similar to the slightly S-shaped middle TFTs of the

VER693C0 TFT Set. But unlike the VER693C0 Set, this TFT Set is not designed to provide a significant range of variability to the user, but rather a small range of variability to allow a single predefined table to be matched as closely as possible.

It provides several linear-in-density curves (5 with increasing density plus 5 with decreasing density). It also provides 5 approximately linear-inbrightness curves, similar to some of the VER693C0 curves, for an MR MODALITY (Toshiba Flexart). The combination of diverse curve shapes in this TFT Set, for different MODALITIES, makes it an example of a hybrid TFT Set.

VER693C0: A popular, general-purpose TFT set of S-shaped curves, widely used for CT, MR and certain other modalities.

Curve 6 of this set is designed to be linear-in-perceived-brightness. Contrast settings below 6 give increased contrast (slope) near the endpoints and decreased “mid-tone” (near 50% of digital input) contrast. Contrast settings above 6 give decreased contrast near the endpoints and increased mid-tone contrast. The following plots of this TFT Set show that all 15 of the tables have essentially the same mid-tone brightness, with varying degrees of an S-shape contribution which gives the strongest end-points contrast (slope) to Table 1 and the strongest mid-tone contrast (slope) to Table 15.

VER703C0: Created to provide a set of S-shaped curve choices that are intermediate-in-perceived- brightness, i.e., between those of VER693C0 TFT Set and those of VER713C0 TFT Set. All 15 of these tables have essentially the same mid-tone brightness, which is slightly brighter than the mid-tone brightness of the VER693C0 tables and slightly darker than the mid-tone brightness of the VER713C0 TFT Set. As with the VER693C0 and VER713C0 TFT Sets, there are varying degrees of an Sshape contribution which gives the strongest end-points contrast (slope) to Table 1 and the strongest mid-tone contrast (slope) to Table 15.

VER713C0: Nearly as popular as the VER693C0 Set, with a somewhat lower mid-tone density than the VER693C0 Set. This set is similar to the VER693C0 TFT Set, but with a slight increase in brightness (i.e., the VER713C0 TFT Set can be

characterized as having slightly lower “mid-tone density” than the VER693C0 TFT Set). All 15 of these tables have essentially the same mid-tone brightness, which is noticeably brighter than the mid-tone brightness of the VER693C0 tables. As with the

VER693C0 TFT Set, there are varying degrees of an S-shape contribution which gives the strongest end-points contrast (slope) to Table 1 and the strongest mid-tone contrast (slope) to Table 15.

VER723C0: Designed to offer another choice of curves, similar to the S-shaped curves of VER713C0, but at a brightness higher than VER713C0 (which, in turn, is brighter than VER703C0, which is brighter than VER693C0). This choice is needed at certain customer sites (e.g., at GE CT-I sites where higher brightness is desired for mid-brain gray/white matter and/or abdominal soft tissue).

GSDF6: Composed of 12 curves, all based on the DICOM Grayscale Standard Display Function, with parameters chosen to support the range of density (Dmax) settings available on the 8300 LASER IMAGER. The curves are designed so the contrast and density (Dmax) settings should be chosen according to the following table:

All the curves in this ULUT set were designed based on an assumed film Dmin of 0.2 and an assumed light box luminance of 5500 cd/sq.m.

LORAD03: A moderately “tight” ULUT set, intended for printing Lorad digital mammography images using an 8300 LASER

IMAGER in linear-in-transmittance 1/3 gamma mode. All of the curves of this ULUT set are close to each other and close to a single, central curve (curve 6), which was designed to provide printed densities that match as closely as possible a table of target densities desired by Lorad in order to match the density-vs-input characteristics of an Agfa printer. The table of densities (i.e., as measured on an Agfa film) is as follows:

The desired densities are converted into desired t-values (for the “central” curve 6) by the WARP15 program import function.

In an actual 8610 print, t-values are mapped into the available density range of the 8300 LASER IMAGER (i.e., from approximately 0.20 film Dmin to approximately 3.5 using the highest density 8300 setting). A small range of brightness is provided in this ULUT set. Brightness increases as the contrast setting is increased from 1 through 12.

LORAD04: Similar to the LORAD03 ULUT Set that was created for Lorad, but with one difference. In the LORAD03 ULUT

Set, curve 12 is the brightest of all 12 ULUTs in the relatively tight set. In the LORAD04 ULUT Set, curve 12 is linear (i.e., a straight line). As a result, in the LORAD04 ULUT Set, curve 12 (contrast setting 12) can be used on an 8300 LASER IMAGER that is set to linear-in-density gamma mode to print images with a linear-in-density overall response.

SIECT83C: A “tight” ULUT set, with all of its curves close to each other and close to a single, central curve that was designed to provide printed densities which match, as accurately as possible, a table of target densities defined by Siemens for their CT systems.

There is a very small variation range provided in this ULUT set. Curves 1, 4, 7, and 10 give a slightly lowered mid-tone brightness. Curves 2, 5, 8, and 11 give the nominal or target mid-tone brightness, and curves 3, 6, 9, and 12 give a slightly elevated mid-tone brightness. Within each of these three groups, the mid-tone contrast increases very slightly as the contrast setting is increased (e.g., from 2 to 5 to 8 to 11).

SIEMR83C: A “tight” ULUT set, with all of its curves close to each other and close to a single, central curve that was designed to provide printed densities which match, as accurately as possible, a table of target densities defined by Siemens for their MR systems.

U1_109B: The original standard ULUT set for the 8300 LASER IMAGER. A recommended replacement for this ULUT set is the newer ULUT Set, U1_109S described below.

This ULUT Set has a diversity of curve shapes designed to accommodate the needs of a variety of imaging MODALITIES. Its

12 curves consist of 6 saggy curves that span a wide range of mid-tone brightnesses and 3 S-shaped curves at each of 2 mid-tone brightnesses. The saggy curves are often used for printing Ultrasound and nuclear medicine images, while the S-shaped curves are widely used for printing CT and MR images.

The number order of the curves (tables) in this set is designed so that when a contrast test is requested that yields 2 films with 3 columns of 2 images on each film, the first film shows the 6 images printed from upper left to lower right using the 6 saggy curves. On the second film, the left column shows the images printed using the first group of 3 S-curves and the right column shows the images printed using the second group of 3 S-curves. For these curves, overall image brightness increases as the contrast setting is increased from 1 to 6. These curves are often preferred over S-shaped curves by radiologists who are working with MODALITIES such as Ultrasound or nuclear medicine.

8E8820 – NOV 2003 8-37

SERVICE MANUAL

Curves 7, 9, and 11 of this ULUT set are a subset of the U713C0 ULUT Set (see the graph below). A contrast setting of 7 gives the lowest mid-tone contrast in this group of 3, while a contrast setting of 11 gives the highest mid-tone contrast. These 3 curves have a higher mid-tone brightness than curves 8, 10, and 12 of this ULUT set.

Curves 8, 10, and 12 of this ULUT set are a subset of the U693C0 ULUT Set. A contrast setting of 8 gives the lowest mid-tone contrast in this group of 3, while a contrast setting of 12 gives the highest mid-tone contrast. These 3 curves have a lower midtone brightness than curves 7, 9, and 11 of this ULUT set.

Because this ULUT set has such a variety of curve shapes, with no simple relationship between contrast setting and either midtone brightness or mid-tone contrast, this set may be useful primarily as a “finder” set, to help a user decide on some other ULUT set as a final choice, within which the curve shape varies in a more continuous, intuitive way as the contrast setting is changed

(e.g., UPMSV3K, U693C0, or U713C0).

U1_109S: Like the U1_109B ULUT Set it replaces, this set has a diversity of curve shapes designed to accommodate the needs of a variety of imaging modalities. Its 12 curves consist of 6 saggy curves that span a wide range of mid-tone brightnesses, and

3 S-shaped curves at each of 2 mid-tone brightnesses. The saggy curves are often used for printing Ultrasound and nuclear medicine images, while the S-shaped curves are widely used for printing CT and MR images.

The U1_109S ULUT Set is a nearly identical replacement for the previously described U1_109B TFT Set. Whereas U1_109B had some tables that only reached 1020 instead of the full maximum scale value of 1023, all the tables of U1_109S do reach the maximum scale value. Therefore, printed densities can reach the lowest possible Dmin.

For these curves, overall image brightness increases as the contrast setting is increased from 1 to 6. These curves are often preferred over S-shaped curves by radiologists who are working with modalities such as ultrasound or nuclear medicine.

Curves 7, 9, and 11 of this set are a subset of the U713C0 ULUT Set. A contrast setting of 7 gives the lowest mid-tone contrast in this group of 3, while a contrast setting of 11 gives the highest mid-tone contrast. These 3 curves have a higher mid-tone brightness than curves 8, 10, and 12 of this ULUT set.

Curves 8, 10, and 12 of this set are a subset of the U693C0 ULUT Set. A contrast setting of 8 gives the lowest mid-tone contrast in this group of 3, while a contrast setting of 12 gives the highest mid-tone contrast. These 3 curves have a lower mid-tone brightness than curves 7, 9, and 11 of this ULUT set.

Because this ULUT set has such a variety of curve shapes, with no simple relationship between contrast setting and either midtone brightness or mid-tone contrast, this set may be primarily useful as a “finder” set, to help a user decide on some other ULUT set as a final choice, within which the curve shape varies in a more continuous, intuitive way as the contrast setting is changed

(e.g., UPMSV3K, U693C0, or U713C0).

U693C0: Consists of “S-shaped” variations about a linear-in-perceived-brightness response. For this ULUT set, all curves intersect at the 50% point of maximum input, meaning that all contrast settings will give the same mid-tone brightness.

As the contrast setting is increased from 1 to 12, the mid-tone contrast (i.e., the contrast in the middle part of the grayscale) is increased, while the contrast in the very dark and very light parts of the grayscale is decreased. This ULUT set is very suitable for CT, MR, and C-Arm applications and is also sometimes useful for nuclear medicine applications.

U713C0: Consists of S-shaped variations about a central curve which is somewhat brighter than the central linear-in-perceivedbrightness curve of the U693C0 ULUT Set. As with the U693C0 ULUT Set, all curves of this set also intersect at the 50% point of maximum input, but the mid-tone brightness of the curves in this set is somewhat higher than the mid-tone brightness of the

U693C0 ULUT Set.

As with the U693C0 ULUT Set, as the contrast setting is increased from 1 to 12, the mid-tone contrast (i.e., the contrast in the middle part of the grayscale) is increased, while the contrast in the very dark and very light parts of the grayscale is decreased.

This ULUT set has rather wide applicability and is often used for ultrasound, nuclear medicine and DSA. It may also be used for other MODALITIES when a brightness greater than that from the U693C0 ULUT Set is desired.

UPMSV3K: A relatively wide-ranging set of saggy curves. This set provides a wider choice of brightnesses than curves 1-6 of the U1_109S (or U1_109B) ULUT Set. This set is widely used in applications including ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and others where an S-shaped response curve is not desired.

For these curves, overall image brightness increases as the contrast setting is increased from 1 to 12. The brighter curves in this set are often preferred by radiologists who are working with modalities such as Ultrasound or nuclear medicine.

WKSTN83A: Most of the curves in this set are designed to give a linear-in-density response, while the remaining curves are designed to give an approximately linear-in-perceived-brightness response. This is assuming that in both cases, the subsequent gamma table processing in the imager is of the linear-in-transmittance 1/3 type, as is always the case in the 8300 LASER

IMAGER.

Because of its linear-in-density curves, this ULUT set can be used, even on an 8300 LASER IMAGER, with certain

MODALITIES or workstations (e.g., Toshiba nuclear medicine or some Siemens workstations) that are designed to work with an IMAGER that has a linear-in-density characteristic. Overall this ULUT set offers the choices shown below:

The linear in density in this ULUT Set are associated with contrast settings of 1 through 8 as shown below.

The best curve (contrast setting) to use to obtain a linear-in-density response depends on the current Dmax density setting, as indicated in the following table.

1. When using linear-in-density curves from WKSTN83A on an 8300

LASER IMAGER operating in linear-in-transmittance 1/3 mode.

When you choose the contrast setting from this table, the density printed by an 8300 LASER IMAGER should decrease in approximately equal steps of Optical Density as the digital input is increased by a given step size.

The approximate linear-in-brightness curves in this ULUT set are obtained at Contrast settings of 9 through 12. As the Contrast setting is increased from 9 to 11, mid-tone contrast is increased slightly while the contrast in the near-black and near-white portions of the image is decreased slightly. Curve 12 is a repeat of curve 9. For further details on these U693C0-type curves, see the description of the U693C0 ULUT Set.

ULUT Set Selections for the 8600 and 8610 LASER IMAGER

The current MODALITY (Contrast Table) Groups, contained in the file “Luts86-G5B-1.txt,” include the following 11 ULUT sets.

Group 1, UPMSV3K: A relatively wide-ranging set of saggy curves. This set provides a wider choice of brightnesses than curves 1-6 of the U1_109S (or U1_109B) ULUT Set. This set is widely used in applications including Ultrasound, nuclear medicine, and others where an S-shaped response curve is not desired.

Group 2, U693C0: Consists of “S-shaped” variations about a linear-in-perceived-brightness response. For this ULUT set, all curves intersect at the 50% point of maximum input, meaning that all contrast settings will give the same mid-tone brightness.

8E8820 – NOV 2003 8-41

SERVICE MANUAL

Group 3, U713C0: Consists of S-shaped variations about a central curve which is somewhat brighter than the central linear-inperceived-brightness curve of the U693C0 ULUT Set. As with the U693C0 ULUT Set, all curves of this set also intersect at the

50% point of maximum input, but the mid-tone brightness of the curves is somewhat higher than the mid-tone brightness of the

U693C0 ULUT Set.

This ULUT set has rather wide applicability and is often used for Ultrasound, nuclear medicine and DSA. It may also be used for other MODALITIES when a brightness greater than that from the U693C0 ULUT Set is desired.

Group 4, GSDFP - All the contrast tables of this set are based on the NEMA Grayscale Standard Display Function, parameterized with a D-min of 0.2, a lightbox luminance of 2000 cd/sq.m., and an ambient light fraction of 0.005. "Light fraction" is the amount of reflected ambient light coming off the film, expressed as a fraction of the lightbox luminance. For this

ULUT Set, the parameter which varies as the contrast setting is changed is D-max. As the contrast setting is changed from 1 through 12, the D-max parameter goes through the following sequence of values: 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.9, 3.1,

3.3, 3.5.

Group 5, GSDFLL0P - All the contrast tables of this set are based on the NEMA Grayscale Standard Display Function, parameterized with a D-max of 3.5 and a D-min of 0.2. For this ULUT Set, the parameter which varies as the contrast setting is changed is the measured luminance of the lightbox in cd/sq.m. As the contrast setting is changed from 1 through 12, the luminance is varied through the following sequence of values: 2000, 2210, 2442, 2699, 2982, 3295, 3641, 4024, 4447, 4914,

5430, 6000 cd/sq.m., respectively.

Group 6, GSDFAA0P - All the contrast tables of this set are based on the NEMA Grayscale Standard Display Function, parameterized with a D-max of 3.5, a D-min of 0.2, and a lightbox luminance of 5500 cd/sq.m. For this ULUT Set, the parameter which varies as the contrast setting is changed is the ambient light fraction, i.e., the amount of reflected ambient light coming off the film, expressed as a fraction of the lightbox luminance. As the contrast setting is changed from 1 through 12, the ambient light fraction parameter goes through the following sequence of values: .001, .002, .003, .004, .005, .006, .007, .008, .009, .010,

.011, .012.

Groups 7 through 11 - These include the UPMS3VK set.
