Filling run

The X-ray system stands in the starting position for the filling run (abdomen).
"1/4" for instance is displayed on the display in the remote control console.
Check the correct programming of the injector to avoid unnecessary contrast
medium injections.
◆ Press the fluoroscopy release switch briefly (for at least 2 s)
– The exposure parameters are calculated and taken over from the fluoro-
scopic values (0 point technique).
◆ Press the exposure release button and keep it pressed up to the end of the
examination, i.e. until the filling run is ended.
◆ Trigger the injection, automatically or manually.
◆ Observe the contrast medium filling on the live image monitor.
If the injector is not connected, the first exposure series is started immediately.
With the injector connected, firstly the injection is triggered or the exposure se-
ries released depending upon the set triggering.
◆ Deflect the joystick briefly up / down or press the key to the left / right, once
the optimum contrast medium filling is reached.
– The X-ray system moves in each case into the next position
– The position is displayed on the display in the remote control console, e.g.
"2/4" up to max. "4/4"

End of scene

◆ Let the exposure release button go once the required contrast medium filling
is reached in the last exposure position.
The exposure series is also ended if the image memory is full and the maximum
scene time has been reached, independently of the position in which the system
is located.
