Failed QAP

In the event of failed QAP tests, wait 10 minutes and repeat the QAP procedure to confirm the failure.
Check the items listed below when repeating the tests:
• Check collimator blades. Make sure that they are fully open and not in the field of view.
• Check that the phantom is correctly positioned.
• Check that no other objects are in the field of view.
If a single failure is confirmed, call to schedule service. The system is operational, although inspection
and potential calibration are needed.
If multiple failures are confirmed, image quality may be affected; cease use of the unit and call for
immediate service.
