Offline image acquisition workflow
A prerequisite for the offline image acquisition workflow is that the DR
detector is configured to use automatic exposure detection.
The offline image acquisition workflow is only intended for DR detectors that
are used in a DR Retrofit solution.
The DR detector can acquire multiple images without being connected to the
MUSICA Acquisition Workstation. After reconnecting the DR detector, the
images are uploaded to the MUSICA Acquisition Workstation and become
available as recovery examinations, processed using a default exposure type.
The patient data and image details of the images must be edited manually and
the images must be transferred to the right patient.
To acquire images offline:
1. Start a new examination.
This examination will contain only the first of the images that are acquired
offline. The other images will each arrive in a separate recovery
examination.

WARNING:
Maximum 200 images can be stored on the DR detector during
this workflow. Making more exposures will cause the first
images to be deleted from the DR detector.
WARNING:
The user has to write down the demographic data and exposure
timestamp for each image. The user is responsible for assigning
the right images to the right patient after finishing the offline
image acquisition workflow.
WARNING:
Do not turn off the DR detector during the offline image
acquisition workflow. If the detector is turned off, reconnect it to
the MUSICA Acquisition Workstation. The images that were
already acquired will be downloaded. To acquire new images
offline, restart the workflow.
WARNING:
On NX software with version "Type 22.--" or older, the
timestamp on the recovery images does not contain the time
when the image was acquired, so it cannot be used to identify
the images. An alternative solution is to use lead markers that
make the acquisition time or the patient identification visble in
the image. Open About NX in the Main Menu to view the
version number.
