Brilliance (water-cooled) Version 2.0.2 and Mx8000 IDT V4.02 Application Release Notes
Brilliance (water-cooled) Version 2.0.2 and Mx8000 IDT V4.02

Application Release Notes
New features in Brilliance V2.0.2/4.0.2

Version 2.0.2/4.0.2 includes the following changes relative to Brilliance 2.0:
• Scan angle parameter in the protocol:

— In Head scans, Scan angle of 360/420 can be selected in Generate Protocols mode. This applies to all Head
scan-types.
— Scan angle of 240 is automatically applied by the rules system to specific scans like locator and tracker.
• FOV for Surview may be set by the user.
• New cardiac factory protocols for the Cardiac option
• Report options are available
• Image quality for scanners: 10 slices in 8x3mm mode and for 6 slices in 6x3 mode, was improved – splay artifacts
were reduced.
• Remote Recon option can be used (EBW V2.0.52)
Issues fixed in Brilliance V2.0.2/4.0.2

The following corrections and improvements were implemented in version 2.0.2/4.0.2:
• Annotations in MIP MasterCut

• LNA option – volume calculation accuracy
• BolusPro reliability improvements
• Fix patient data improvements
• HIS/RIS window is no more hidden behind other windows
• Cardiac viewer fixes
• DLP (Dose-Length product) display for short spiral scans accuracy
CSIP Level 1 © 2006 Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V All Rights Reserved Refer to Front Cover 1
• Split-study is a key-enabled option

• Long TC crash on arcing
• Bug in Irregularities (from V2.0.2 beta 2)
• Reconstruction with SP Off
The reconstruction with SP off is now allowed. Although Philips recommends reconstructing with the SP on, in some
cases where the speed of the scan is crucial for the success of the scan, the SP may be turned off.
This applies to the Ultra Fast mode where the DFS is not used, and as a result the in-plane resolution decreases when
the SP is on and/or the pitch is higher than 1.
Consequently, in order to optimize the reconstruction quality in these scans, you may wish to turn-off the SP. However,
if the scan mode is Ultra-Fast and the needed scan speed is so fast that the actual pitch is higher than 1, the SP should
be on since the in-plane resolution will anyway be low.
To summarize the recommended SP status, see the table below:
Pitch UF Std. HR UHR
<1 OFF ON ON ON
>1 ON ON NA NA
New Features in V.2.0
Work Flow
• Integration of EBW 2.0 into the Scanner Console
• Enhanced Plan on Surview, including additional reconstructions and MPRs (new in beta 4.1).
• Enhanced graphic planning on Surview for easier and faster operation. Mouse cursor automatically changes its
shape according to the desired operation:
Move the Scan - move mouse cursor into the middle of scan plan box (not over one of the scan’s borders),
then click and drag the scan plan box to the desired position.
Change Start/End - move mouse cursor to beginning or end of scan, then click and drag the line up or
down.
Change Field of View – move mouse cursor to the scans side borders, then click and drag the line left or
right.
Rotate the Scan (Axial and MPRs only) – move mouse cursor over the Rotate icon above the scan
rectangle, then click and drag the mouse left or right.
Resize Plan – move the mouse is over a corner of the plan contour, then click and drag the corner to
change the corner position. This changes the start, end, length, FOV, or X/Y shift. When dragging the
corner, the FOV does not change symmetrically
MPR planning
• During the Plan Scan stage – after the reconstruction is complete, the CT Viewer is launched and the MPR images
are displayed.
— Add an MPR: click on a scan in Series list during Plan Scan stage and click “Insert MPR” button. The MPR is
inserted after the selected series. The MPR “RAW images” are derived from the recon before it.
— Set MPR parameters: Click on the MPR in Series list to view the MPR parameters.
— Change the MPR’s length and FOV: can be done graphically.
NOTE The middle of MPR must always be within the scan’s boundaries.
— Orientation: there are three ways of determining MPR orientation.

Orientation buttons: Sagittal / Coronal / Axial buttons sets the MPR direction and uses maximum scan
volume.
Sagittal angle and Coronal angle: parameter in scan protocol. Range is –90 to +90.
Graphic interface to Rotate the MPR: When using a Surview 180, the Sagittal angle can be rotated. When
using Surview 90, the Coronal angle can be rotated.
NOTE Using both angles on single Surview can be confusing and is not recommended.
NOTE When using both angles, the plan box (blue filled rectangle) is used to manipulate MPR (Move, change
F.O.V. etc.)
— Viewing MPR images: After all images are reconstructed MPR images are automatically loaded into the
CT Viewer.
— Batch: range can be edited by using the “insert” and “delete” buttons in the keyboard
Important To save the MPR series, right click on the series name, and select “save” or “film”. Images are not
automatically saved.
— Interactive series list (in the toolbox): controls both planning the scans on the Surview and viewing the images
on the Scan Viewer.
Click on a Series to plan it (in Plan Scan mode) or to View the images (in View Scan mode).
Copy, Paste and Delete scans and recons directly from series list during planning and viewing.
Split study
• Define a different Requested Procedure for each series of a study.
• Set Requested Procedure in the Auto Options tab of a scan or an Add-Recon.
• For multiple scan studies, select the new Requested Procedure to create a separate study in Archive with a
different Requested Procedure for each scan.
• Each archive study will have the selected Series for the Requested Procedure and all the studies will have the
Surview images.
NOTE Requested Procedures should be set up during installation.
Merge Two series

• Merge series into one, for PACS review
• Select “Merge with Previous Series” in the Auto Options tab of a scan or an Add-Recon.
• Select “Merge with Previous Series” to merge the selected Series with the preceding Series. Both Series will have
consecutive numbering; the 2nd Series number will start after the previous Series last image number.
Continue Last Study

• This option appears in Patient Data window and is available if Patient Parameters are identical to those of the
previous Patient.
• Select this option if previous study was mistakenly stopped. New scans will have the same Study number in Archive.
• Select Last Exam Protocol: Click this button to use the last used Exam protocol of the last study.
Use Previous Surview Image

• This button appears on “Clinical tab” of Toolbox in Plan Scan mode of a Surview image.
• Click Use Previous Surview Image to use the last Surview performed on this patient.
Integrated HIS/RIS
• Modify patients’ details in HIS/RIS using Web Interface or Telnet Interface.
• Click the Direct HIS/RIS quick access button in the Home page to open the HIS/RIS window.
NOTE HIS/RIS should be defined once using Preferences
Auto Create Es Image as Secondary Capture (for Pacs Review)

In Preferences | Scanner, select Autosend ES images as secondary capture = Yes. ES images will be automatically
sent to PACs as a secondary capture.
Block Transfer of Certain Type of Images

This feature enables filtration of the images according to different flags or tags while exporting them from the scanner to
the PACS. This reduces the images load on the PACS by avoiding transfer of unnecessary images.
Import Procedure List From His/ris for Mapping

Required Procedure imported from His/Ris
New “Archived” Flag in Directory

This feature is configured in the system configuration. Images sent to the different media (except EOD) appear with
flag.
Pulmo Instructions
• To plan two Pulmo Prospective scans using different scan modes (for instance "max inhale" and "max exhale")
perform the scans as follows:
1 Plan the first scan in the max. inhale mode and click Go.
2 When the scan is complete plan the second scan in the Max. Exhale mode.
3 Click Go.
NOTE Do not plan the two scans simultaneously.
• To avoid reconstruction failure due to invalid pitch, always keep the pitch values within 0.04 - 0.08 and the rotation
time 0.4 or 0.5 sec. The factory recommended values are: Pitch = 0.06 and RT = 0.5 sec.
• The Varian sensor is not supported. The only supported sensor is Bellows.
• Never edit the R tags on-line. After the scan and reconstruction are finished, end the study and only then perform R-
tag editing for the off-line reconstruction. If the peak is not identified use the "Add new tag" function. Editing the last
R-tag doesn't work.
• The message "Respiratory device is disconnected" may appear during the Pulmo scans, even when the device is
performing correctly. When this message appears make sure that the device is connected. If it is disconnected,
abort the scan.
Easy protocols
• Clinically oriented scanning: a new parameter called Scan Type is used to avoid erroneous parameters.
• Parameters that may result in bad image quality are not available.
• Automatic parameters: parameters are optimized automatically according to the scan type.
• Improved protocol interface: a new design offers more intuitive operation.
Bolus Tracking Enhancements

• Automatic vessel tracking for improved triggering when following the vessel movements.
• Improved tracker image quality: 512 matrix
Pulmonary Gating Option

• Improved image quality by reducing the motion artifacts caused by patient’s breathing.
Cardiac Irregularities (R Tag Correction) in Retrospective Tagging

• Improved image quality of cardiac scans by adding, deleting or adjusting the R tags on the ECG graph before final
recon.
Cardiac Adaptive Filter

• A new algorithm dedicated to Cardiac scans, replaces the regular Adaptive Filter for Cardiac scans.
• Activated from the Advanced tab of a Cardiac scan: same checkbox as normal Adaptive Filter.
• In order to control the adaptive filter in the scan protocol, in the Preferences window clear the Automatic Special
Filters selection.
Adaptive Filter
• Select to activate a special algorithm that improves image quality of Axial & Helical scans..
• Available in the Advanced tab of a scan.

CAUTION
• During Bolus tracking, pay attention to the CT values on images.
• To start the clinical scan manually, click the Start Clinical scan button.
• When using SAS injector — start the injection only after the message “Start Injection” appears on the scanner
screen.
• Perform daily and monthly scanner checks to ensure correct CT numerical values.
• Keep the Maylar clean at all times. Any contrast material left on the maylar surface, patient table, and accessories
will create image artifacts. (see instructions in the section Cleaning the System).
• When Automatic dose-right ACS is used — always review the mAs value before scanning.
• When a Decubitus position is used, review Surview scan angle. When using a Decubitus position use 90° for AP and
PA and 180° for Lateral.
• While working in the scanner room, be aware of cables that may be lying on the floor around the Gantry.
• A doctor must sign reports used for Interventional operations.
WARNING Biopsy CCT

• The doctor must avoid infecting the patient; do not touch the panel or any other surface that is not sterile.
• Ask the assistant to operate the panel.
• Use disposable sterile gloves.
• Perform operations on the console according to the biopsy operator’s instructions.
WARNING ADDITIONAL OR OFF-LINE RECONSTRUCTION

• Don’t use 7.5 mm slice thickness in Additional or Off-line reconstruction if the scan was acquired with 6x3 mm or 8x3
mm collimation and the original slice thickness was 3.3 mm.
CAUTION Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) will supply power to the console for approximatly
10 to 15 minutes when there is a power failure. To improve system security against
program viruses, the UPS does not send messages (time left on UPS power or shut
down) to the user. The user must quickly complete the reconstruction for the last scan
and then safely shut down the Host and IRS computers.

Solution: Select another patient and then reselect the previous patient series.
• When reconstruction is stuck and does not proceed (for CIRS only) follow the following steps:
a Shut down the CIRS computer and wait approximately one minute
b Turn on the CIRS computer and wait untill the “IRS disconnected” message disappears.
c Reconstruct off-line the problematic Raw data by redefining as Start position the original start position plus at least
2 mm.
For example: if the original start position is 123.4 mm and the original increment is -0.5 mm then the new start
position will be 121 mm.
• On IRS systems, as in the previous software versions, the Raw Data on the IRS cannot be locked against automatic
delete when it is the oldest raw on the disk and a new scan is requested.
Solution: To reconstruct a study again, perform the reconstruction before the Raw Data is automatically
deleted from the IRS."
