OVERVIEW
The Interchange Media option provides a compact disk recording (CD-R) drive, installed inside the
Acquisition Workstation cart. It allows you to save and restore Senographe 2000 D image data using
standard 5-1/4" recordable compact disks (DICOM data format). Images saved in this way may, for
example, be passed to another radiologist for a second opinion.
The Interchange Media option is NOT recommended for permanent archiving.
CAUTION
GE does not guarantee the suitability of the media for such purposes.
The presence of the CD-R option is indicated by icons in the Browser window:
D An icon appears in the Network panel of the Browser window (upper left corner).
CDR
D An icon appears below each of the lists in the Browser window (these icons may
be turned off and on in the Browser preferences window, accessed through the
Tools menu, see Chapter 7).

USING THE INTERCHANGE MEDIA OPTION
Recordable CDs are considerably more sensitive to damage than the conventional CD-ROMs that you
may be familiar with. Respect the handling instructions below.
2-1
Handling CD-R Media
To avoid image loss, never touch the recordable surface of a recordable CD
CAUTION
(CD-R). Handle the disk only by the outer edge. Do not place it face down on a
hard surface. Fingerprints or scratches will make the disk unusable.
Before usage, verify that CD-R surface has no visible scratches. If there are any
scratches, do NOT use the CD-R.
D Store the disk in its protective case. Proper storage helps protect the data from damage due to
scratches on the disk surface.
D Do not leave the disk in direct sunlight or in a hot, humid environment. These conditions can warp
and damage the disk.
D Use only a felt tip permanent pen when labeling. Write only on the printed area or on the clear
inner diameter of the disk. Never use a ballpoint or hard point writing tool as it may damage the
disk. Do not use adhesive labels.
D Use a soft, lint-free cloth to remove spots, dust, or fingerprints from the disk. Always wipe from the
center to the outside edge of the disk. Never wipe the disk in a circular motion.
D Do not use any chemical-based cleaners. These can damage the disk.
