Figure 34 Finish Offset Calibration 11.12.3 Gain Calibration To compensate for non-uniformities in the X-ray detector, a gain reference image (flat field) is used by the Corrections module to correct all images.
To reduce the effects of noise, the average of each pixel in the flat field image is calculated by accumulating a number of frames into an internal memory buffer, then dividing the sum of each pixel by the number of frames acquired. Note Gain calibration requires X-ray dose. Certain precautions must be taken by the human operator. The number of calibration frames used during Gain and Offset calibrations can be adjusted under the Mode Settings pull down menu.

4343W/4336W-G5/2530W-G5 X-ray Detectors 12.0 The Detector Configuration File R EFERENCE M ANUAL A configuration file will ship with the X-ray detector. The file is loaded by Varex onto the X-ray detector and will contain 1 or more modes. The configuration file is stored in the X-ray Detector’s non-volatile memory. The purpose of each mode is to configure the X-ray detector to achieve optimal performance during specific imaging procedures.
13.0 System Software The X-ray detector deploys the Varex Smart Panel (VSP) architecture. X-ray detector software is composed of two parts: • Detector Software necessary to capture, process, and correct X-ray images (embedded in the detector). • The VSP SDK client libraries. Because the main software is embedded within the X-ray detector, the only software required on the workstation is a small set of DLLs that are copied from the software package to the workstation.
4343W/4336W-G5/2530W-G5 X-ray Detectors R EFERENCE M ANUAL If corrections are not turned on (i.e. raw frames), multiple frames will be delivered to the workstation (i.e. uncorrected exposed frame, and the post offset), see Figure 58. Figure 58 Exposure: Raw Frames 13.2 vTrigger Acquisition (AED) The vTrigger acquisition is controlled by hardware. However, software is used to select a mode prior to arming the X-ray detector.
13.3 X-ray Generator Interface Signals Normally a set of hardware signals are used to interface between the X-ray detector and the X-ray generator and hand switch. For example, PREP and REQ are two hand switch signals that are typically used to indicate the user request for an X-ray exposure. Typically PREP (Prepare) indicates the user’s input that X-ray exposure is imminent, while REQ (Request) indicates the user’s input for immediate X-ray exposure.
4343W/4336W-G5/2530W-G5 X-ray Detectors Software may be used to detect either of these sensors as 0 or 1 in various locations in an OEM system, e.g. a wall stand, table bucky, or if a grid is in use. R EFERENCE M ANUAL OEM Sensor Recommendations: 1 The magnets used in the OEM bucky or grid should have a magnetic strength rating between 1.17T and 1.21T. This will provide a magnetic field to activate the sensor in the detector without activating both of them, if they are appropriately placed.
14.0 Maintenance In principle, the X-ray detector assembly is maintenance-free, however; it is important that all calibrations are regularly performed and used for image processing. Although the a-Si X-ray detectors are resistant to X-rays they can exhibit degradation over time when exposed to high X-ray dose environments. Sensitivity and uniformity may change depending on the weekly exposure duration and X-ray dose. Therefore, the pixel correction maps should be checked and updated regularly. 14.
4343W/4336W-G5/2530W-G5 X-ray Detectors 14.1.2 Cleaning the X-ray Detector R EFERENCE M ANUAL To clean the X-ray detector: 1 Remove the battery from the X-ray detector. 2 Locate and read the cleaning instructions specified on the product label. Follow the product instructions for cleaning. Note If you are using a disinfectant other than those specified, we recommend you consult a specialist for the procedure for disinfection. 3 Dispense wipe from container. 4 Visually inspect the device.
b Use additional fresh wipes as needed to ensure continuous wet contact time during the specified disinfection period. c Let air-dry. d If visible residue is evident after air-drying, remove the residue with a general Isopropyl Alcohol wipe, and let air dry. e Do not re-use wipes. Discard wipes and gloves into the correct waste container. WARNING Do not use flowing liquid or immersion on the X-ray detector, battery, battery compartment, or battery charger. 14.
