Specification

Fujifilm FCR Carbon XL - Brand Name or Equal Specification

This s pecification outlines the requirements for a Computed Radiography (CR) s ys tem. While a s pecific brand and model (Fujifilm FCR Carbon XL with FDX Cons ole Package) were mentioned, this document details the key functionalities and performance parameters that any equivalent s ys tem mus t meet.

A. CR Sys tem - Core Functionality & Performance:

• Imaging Type: Computed Radiography (CR) s ys tem utilizing reus able imaging plates .

• Res olution: Capable of acquiring high-res olution images , with a minimum res olution equivalent to 50 microns (20 lp/ mm) for optimal detail in examining bee nes ts and potentia l paras ites .

• Plate Size: Mus t s upport 24 x 30 cm imaging plates .

• Throughput: Mus t have a throughput of a t leas t 92 images per hour.

• Cas s ette-Bas ed Sys tem: The s ys tem s hall utilize cas s ettes to hous e and protect the imaging plates during acquis ition and proces s ing.

• Automated Plate Proces s ing: The s ys tem mus t automatically proces s the plates without requiring manual removal by the us er, protecting the plates from damage.

• Cons ole Functionality: Mus t include a cons ole for image acquis ition, pla te identification (e.g., barcode s canning), image proces s ing, and data management.

• Data Integrity: The s ys tem mus t ens ure data integrity by uniquely identifying and linking images with res earch data (e.g., through barcode s canning of pla tes / cas s ettes ).

B. Software Functionality:

• Image Proces s ing: The s ys tem's s oftware s hould provide advanced image proces s ing techniques to maximize res olution and image quality (e.g., Multi-objective Frequency Proces s ing (MFP), dynamic range control, flexible nois e control, and grid pattern removal).

• Image Manipulation: The s oftware s hould enable manipulation of images to enhance vis ualization, including magnification, mas king, cropping, and meas urement tools .

• Labeling & Annotation: The s oftware mus t provide functionality for labeling and annotating images with res earch data .

• Archiving & Storage: The s ys tem s hould integrate with exis ting PACS for image archiving and s torage.

C. Sys tem Integration & Compatibility:

• Exis ting X-ray Unit Compatibility: The CR s ys tem s hould be compatible with the exis ting Faxitron MX-20 X-ray unit.

• PACS Integration: The s ys tem mus t integrate s eamles s ly with the exis ting PACS (Evo-View Diagnos tic Works tation) and allow for the viewing and manipulation of images by multiple us ers a t their des ktop computers .

• Network Capabilities : The s ys tem s hould be networkable for multi-us er acces s and concurrent viewing of images by s everal s cientis ts .

• External Hard Drive: The s ys tem requires compatibility with the exis ting 2TB USB external Wes tern Digita l Hard Drive for additional s torage.

D. Phys ical & Environmental Requirements :

• Space Saving: The CR proces s or unit s hould be compact and des igned for us e in labs with limited s pace (e.g., s mall footprint, option for a cart for eas y relocation).

• Portability: The s ys tem s hould be movable on a cart to maximize res earch space utilization.

E. Ins ta lla tion, Training & Support:

• Ins ta lla tion & Training: Ins ta lla tion and comprehens ive tra ining on s ys tem operation for a ll relevant pers onnel are required.

• Warranty: Each component of the s ys tem mus t come with a manufacturer's warranty covering parts and labor.
