I. INTRODUCTION

4.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Figure 4.1.1 shows the location of the identification labels on the KDR AU DDR.

The KDR AU DDR is a compact radiographic system with proprietary software. The system consists of a rotating and linear

moving floor-mounted stand with integrated software, flat panel digital radiography detector system, generator, GUI

interface station, computer workstation, and table (optional: stitch stand or weight bearing stand).

There are two modes within the software package, "static mode," which may be used to generate static images, and "dy-

namic mode" (or "Dynamic Digital Radiography," abbreviated "DDR,") which may be used to generate a cine loop present-

ing the physician with a diagnostic view of dynamic density and anatomic motion without using fluoroscopy.

The KDR AU DDR is also capable of quickly assuming a preprogrammed position when a new exam is selected, saving

time when positioning the patient. This is referred to as "auto positioning," and made possible by the detector and image

processing software working together.
