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: PSPs must always be erased prior to use.

Note: 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.

IMPORTANT: Wipe the phosphor side of the plate only making sure not to scratch the plates.

Cleaning Phosphor Storage Plates

For the best images, PSPs should be handled carefully and kept clean. Use the following steps to clean plates:

1. Use lint-free, 100% cotton gauze (not cotton balls). Gently wipe the cotton gauze over the dry Plate surface. Wipe using an even side to side motion and then in a circular motion.

2. To clean any remaining stains wipe using an even side to side motion per one of the following options:

Option 1 – Use Air Techniques PSP wipes (P/N B8910).

Option 2 - 100% cotton gauze dampen with anhydrous ethanol or anhydrous

isopropyl alcohol.

3. Completely dry the surface by wiping with another piece of lint-free cotton gauze. Make sure that the PSP is completely dry before use.

IMPORTANT: Do not soak overnight.

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 (such as a 2% Gluteraldehyde solution) according to sterilant manufacturers directions. Do not immerse 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.

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” a

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 subject'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 subject'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 subject'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.)

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.

MAINTENANCE

Phosphor Storage Plates (PSPs).

PSP's are subject to "wear" on the black side during normal handling and use. They can appear scratched, while the sensitive side (blue or white) remains relatively

"smooth". This scratched look on the black side has absolutely no effect on the quality of the image and should be expected under normal conditions. If the phosphor side is scratched make sure the plates are being handled properly and not being dragged from the ScanX tray area or other surfaces that could cause scratching of the plate. Make sure to review the Plate Care and Preparation information provided on page 16 of this manual.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

Like all precision products, the ScanX requires a certain amount of care on a regularly scheduled basis. A well-organized maintenance program aids dependable equipment operation and reduces problems to a minimum. Routine checks help to detect general overall wear, and replacement of parts can often be made before a problem occurs. Adherence to the maintenance schedule will ensure that the ScanX Digital Imaging System will continue performing at its best with uninterrupted service.

Understanding this, we have established two basic maintenance kits that will help insure continuous operation of the ScanX Digital Imaging System. The kits and their associated parts number along with the recommended performance schedule are listed below.

IMPORTANT: All service requiring access to the interior of the ScanX must be performed only by an authorized dealer service technician with the proper training.

Frequently Answers and Questions

What kind of computer system do I need to use with the ScanX?
The ScanX requires a computer system that meets the specified requirements for Information Technology Equipment (ITE) as outlined in IEC 60950 (EN 60950). The document provides specific requirements for the operating system, USB port, hard drive, and software.
How do I clean the Phosphor Storage Plates (PSPs)?
To clean PSPs, use lint-free, 100% cotton gauze to gently wipe the dry plate surface. For stubborn stains, you can dampen the gauze with anhydrous ethanol or isopropyl alcohol. Always ensure the PSP is completely dry before use.
How do I erase the PSPs?
The ScanX has an in-line erase feature that allows you to erase the PSPs immediately after scanning. You can choose to erase the PSPs without scanning for a ‘clean’ erase, or scan them and then erase using the imaging software.
What is the proper way to handle and store the PSPs?
Handle PSPs with care to avoid scratching or soiling the sensitive surface. Use a Plate Transfer Box for intraoral PSPs and an X-ray Cassette for Extraoral PSPs for storage and transfer. Protect the PSPs from direct sunlight and ultraviolet rays.
