Product-specific technical documentationRestrictions and known effects
NOTE Sending film sizes that are not available at the customer site may cause problems at the camera site. For this reason, it is recommended that you delete these film sizes for portrait and landscape formats.
NOTE The Grayscale Standard Display Function (GSDF) is imple-mented for printing and imaging. No Presentation LUTs are available. For this reason, the DICOM Presentation LUT is not released.
NOTE The use of the presentation LUT has to be disabled by local service for configuring LUT files.
NOTE The density values for the image quality were measured with a calibrated densitometer X-Rite 301. The result of the mea-surement from other densitometers used may differ from the absolute density values as described in the tables.
NOTE Print the 17 graystep test image to check the modality and camera adjustment according to the description. Verify the results using the reference values for max. density 2.80 listed in the table. This is also part of the acceptance test.

DICOM associations
A DICOM association is a network connection between 2 DICOM applications. The asso-ciation is established and released by the SCU and may be aborted by the SCU or SCP. The maximum number of associations for each HCC device is defined in the DCS. The maximum number of associations depends on the configuration and may be extended by increasing the number of gateways connected to the printer device.
In a DICOM network environment, there are two ways to connect a modality (SCU) to an HCC device (SCP).
Case 1: The association will always be opened. Assuming that this behavior applies to all modalities (connected to the same HCC device), the number of modalities has to be equal to or less than the maximum number of supported associations.
Case 2: The association will be opened (and closed) on demand. Assuming that this behavior applies to all modalities (connected to the same HCC device), the number of modalities may be greater than the maximum number of supported associations. This num-ber will be shared by the modalities.
The association open-close behavior is unknown to other non-SIEMENS modalities. Under optimum circumstances, the number of modalities is equal to or less than the maximum number of supported associations.
The association is always opened by the SCU (case 1)
If the associations are always opened by the SCU for each configured HCC device, the association is reserved for this SCU only.
If the maximum number of associations = 1, and another modality never releases the asso-ciation, this HCC device is always reserved for this modality.

SONY UP-DF500 X
Manufacturer HCC name Software validity VA27 V... V.... V....
The association is opened and closed on demand (case 2)
The associations will be opened (and closed) on demand by the SCU for each configured HCC device via the product name.
Special cases (compare also to case 1):
If the number of modalities configured in the HCC device is greater than the maximum num-ber of supported associations, some modalities will not be able to print. The printing func-tion depends on the access time and release mechanism of each connected modality (e.g., the maximum number of supported associations = 1, the number of modalities = 2. During access by the first modality, access by the second modality is denied and connectivity fails, and vice versa).
If other modalities do not release the associations, the shareable number of associations decreases.

Image quality and optical density check
1.1General image quality information (LUT)
0Only standard LUT files are loaded. For importing/removing additional/unnecessary LUT files (see section ”Additional/unnecessary LUT files”) (LINK).
The image data from the modality to the HCC is transformed/corrected by the LUTs, once in the modality and once in the HCC. As as result, the LUT has to be set on both sides:
•
Refer to the Siemens Medical Solutions Intranet, UPTIME Services•
Product-Specific Technical DocumentationCorrection LUT is selected
Density verification
0There are two ways to check the LUT via the film density:
The modality is configured to a specific correction LUT and the HCC is configured to linear curves. As an alternative, the modality is configured to a linear LUT and the HCC is config-ured to linear curves.
Modality Image Type Correction LUT Max. density
CT Image CT LUT 2.80
SC Image CT LUT 2.80
HCC Refer to the specific Camera Information "DICOM printer settings".
Density verification for CT
Since these two checks are equivalent; it is sufficient to check the “specified density”. Checking the “HCC linearity” may be necessary if the desired density verification (1) shows deviations and the HCC setting needs to be changed.
NOTE Even if the HCC service does not require a test image of the modality for the HCC setting, it is easier to check this setting - and possibly further HCC corrections - with the HCC linear-ity verification (2) than with the desired denslinear-ity verification (1). Only the HCC linearity LUT is effective. A graphical dis-play would now show the current HCC behavior only. This could be helpful for HCC Service.
Density values for CT
•
Measure the density values in 17 gray levels in the IEC test image (Fig. 2 / p. 18) (for each film size).W:256; C:0;

Use test images (technical images) without text and the three CT Medical Ref images (cerebrum, pancreas, (LWS) lumbar spine) with text and print the film sheet. (the DICOM command to the printer is always "magnification none")
4. Measure IEC test image 1 (Fig. 2 / p. 18) and verify the CTLUT using the table "Density values for modality CT”

0If new, released LUT files are available on a removable medium (e.g., floppy or CD). These files may be selected on the source drive and copied to the dependent LUT directories on the local system. Unnecessary LUT files may be removed from LUT directories on the local system.
Importing LUT files
1. In Local Service Configuration platform, select LUT files
2. Select the (source) drive and the path where the appropriate LUT files are located 3. Select the destination LUT directory (correction LUT directory) which depends on the
image type (CTImage).
4. By pushing the copy button, the selected LUT file will be transferred to CTImage type. 5. Repeat this procedure using the appropriate LUT files for SC Images.
6. Select the destination LUT directory (correction LUT directory) which depends on the image type (SCImage).
7. Pushing the copy button transfers the selected LUT file to SCImage type. 8. Confirm the message "Files successfully copied" by clicking "OK"
Removing LUT files

Real Size Scaling
This procedure should be performed after system installation and when the Hardcopy Camera is ready to print. The real size behavior has to be performed with each connected Hardcopy Camera.
Real size scaling verification
1. Load the test image (water image phantom) into the viewer (e.g. 20 cm water phantom, generated with the constancy procedure by CT).
2. Insert Crosshair (Viewing Card: Tools) and copy the image to the film sheet (“copy image to film sheet” button).
3. Select film sheet format 1 X 1.
4. Select "Original Image" in the filming card and print the image.
5. Use a calibrated ruler to measure the crosshairs of the printed image.
¹ The results should correspond to the printed value underneath the scale with a tolerance of ±1% in both directions.

Use medical image 4 of patient "Reference Images", maximum film size, positive image, 4x5 format, Copies=1, default center/width, magnification type none.
The optimum connection (point to point) was used.
Restrictions
NOTE For HCC-independent restrictions, refer to (Restrictions and known effects / p. 8).
NOTE Slight inhomogeneity visible in gray field
NOTE Typical slight line structure of the thermo head is visible in technical image.
NOTE Two edges of the diagnostic area are cut (approx 1 mm) for 8x10, 10x12, 11x14,14x17.
NOTE The background command does not work properly. The back-ground is always white.
Known effects
NOTE European EMC Classification is Class A.
NOTE The built in densitometer has to be set to X-Rite 301x to achieve the required image quality.
