Revision 1 Addendum to Operator Manual 5316815-1-199-1EN

X-ray Warning
WARNING
X-ray equipment is dangerous to both patient and operator unless measures of protection are
strictly observed
Though this equipment is built to the highest standards of electrical and mechanical safety, the useful x-ray beam becomes a source of danger
in the hands of the unauthorized or unqualified operator. Excessive exposure to x-radiation causes damage to human tissue.
Therefore, adequate precautions must be taken to prevent unauthorized or unqualified persons from operating this equipment or exposing
themselves or others to its radiation.
Before operation, persons qualified and authorized to operate this equipment should be familiar with the Recommendations of the International
Commission on Radiological Protection, contained in Annals Number 60 of the ICRP, and with applicable national standards and should have
been trained in use of the equipment.

Foreword

Foreword

This addendum is provided for Senographe 2000 D operators on the occasion of the introduction of the
AWS Software Application Version 17.5.
It is designed to supply additional information required for the correct use of this equipment with the
following operator manuals:
• Senographe 2000 D Acquisition System - With Premium View - 5179217-1-100
• Senographe 2000 D Acquisition System - Without Premium View - 5128687-2-100

Addendum 1: From Below (FB) View

In addition to Chapter 9, Section 1.1 - Viewer:

FB View Exception Chapter 0


On the AWS, the View and laterality indication is placed in the lower part of the monitor.
Most images of the breast are presented with the axillary region in the upper part of the monitor.
The FB (From Below) views, i.e., radiographic images taken with the X-ray tube directly below the breast
(Arm angle between +170° and +185), are presented in deviation to this practice and have the axillary
region in the lower part of the monitor.

CAUTION

As a consequence, except for the case of FB views, the View and laterality indication is
NOT positioned near the axilla.
Note:
If the Operator has performed rotations or flips to the image on the Viewer, the axilla might be in a
different position from that stated above. The Operator can always use the "Display Normal"
function to restore the initial image display. In any case, the rotations and flips applied to the
images are not stored at exam closure.

Print Annotation Models

Addendum 2: Print Annotation Models

To replace Chapter 11, Section 3.6 - Print Annotation Models:

3-6 Print annotation models


When printing images to film, three models of annotation layout are available. They differ in the position
and type of annotation information to be printed.
Note:
Only the annotation model shown below as Model 3 contains the information required by the
Quality Mammography Standards of the MQSA.
Select the model to be used in the Medical Application preferences Annotations panel (see Chapter 8
Browser of the operator manual).
The illustrations below show the three models. In each case the model is illustrated by a view with the
chest wall to the right.
3-6-1 FB view exception
On the AWS, the View and laterality indication is placed in the lower part of the monitor.
Most images of the breast are presented with the axillary region in the upper part of the monitor. The FB
(From Below) views are presented in deviation to this practice and have the axillary region in the lower
part of the monitor.
As a result of a software enhancement that provides consistency among all views in images printed to
film, the axillary region of FB views is now placed near the upper part of the film. To indicate that an FB
view film printout has the benefit of this enhancement, its laterality annotation (L or R) is printed in italics.

Addendum 3: Premium View

In addition to Chapter 10, Section 10 - Processing:

Premium View Restriction: breast implant image acquisition Chapter 0


Note:
When acquiring implant images, the Premium View algorithm output may not be optimal. In this
case, a satisfactory image display may be obtained by adjusting window level and window width,
or by using the thickness equalization algorithm to reprocess the raw image.

Premium View Restriction: Spot Paddle in Mag or Contact mode Chapter 0


Note:
When acquiring images with Spot paddle in Mag mode or in Contact mode, the Premium View
algorithm output may not be optimal. In this case, a satisfactory image display may be obtained by
adjusting window level and window width, or by using the thickness equalization algorithm to
reprocess the raw image.

Nominal Electric Power

Addendum 4: Nominal Electric Power

In addition to Chapter 15, Section 4 - Tube Information:

Nominal X-ray tube voltages and currents Chapter 0


• Nominal X-ray tube voltage and the highest X-ray tube current available at that voltage:
49 kV; 61.2 mA
• Highest X-ray tube current and the highest X-ray tube voltage available at that current:
100 mA; 30 kV
• Corresponding combination of X-ray tube voltage and X-ray tube current which results in the highest
electrical output power (3 kW):
30 kV; 100 mA or 49 kV; 61.2 mA
• Nominal electric power given as the highest constant electric power (in kW) which the X-ray
generator can deliver, for a loading time of 0.1 s at an X-ray tube voltage of 30 kV:
100 mA x 30 kV = 3 kW
