the C-Arm video camera. Images are displayed on two high-resolution, TFT LCD, antiglare
monitors.
Proprietary software improves image quality by:
• Reducing noise
• Acquiring images at a true 14-bit grayscale
• Digital acquisition image matrix up-scan to a 1K
2
Image with 980 x 980 active pixels.
• Digital display of 1024 H x 1280 V
• Real-time edge enhancement.
The image can be manipulated, stored, or displayed onto the monitors. Images that have been
saved to the hard drive can be edited (enhance edges, Widow and level, Invert image, etc.).
7.5 THUMBNAIL IMAGE DISPLAY
The image system places 4 images onto the right side of the DeskView touch screen monitor, and
along the bottom of the larger display monitors for image review and selection. The Touch screen
ICON Thumbnails are sued to control the transfer of the images so the user operator can perform
post processing functions, i.e. magnification, hard copy selection, invert, zoom, crop, etc.
7.6 LIVE IMAGES
Live images are acquired and displayed during CINE loop acquisition (from 1 to 30 frames) on
the live monitor.
7.7 FLUOROSCOPY
Using the ZIEHM QUANTUM to perform fluoroscopy is easy: turn the system on, give the
cathode filament and image system around 45 - 60 seconds to warm-up, when desk view control
buttons are displayed on the touch screen just press the hand switch or foot switch to start
radiation and view the first images!
The following are some of the standard and optional features, described in detail later in this
chapter, are also available:
• Several fluoroscopy programs
• Snapshot technique
• Pulsed fluoroscopy
• Manual control of kV
• Image integration for noise reduction
• Image Magnification
• Store image to patient file
• Image reversal
• Digital Image rotation
• Iris collimation
