Introduction1-1 2000 March Rev. B 8754020IntroductionIntroducing the Kodak DryView 8100 Laser ImagerThe DryView 8100 Laser Imager is a continuous tone laser imager with an internalphotothermographic film developer. Heat, rather than photo chemicals, is used todevelop the film. The imager can be connected to and print images from a variety ofmedical image source devices such as CT scanners or Ultrasound. It can also beconnected to a DICOM medical image network via the PACS Link 9410 AcquisitionSystem.The DryView 8100 Laser Imager uses 14 inch x 17 inch (35 cm x 43 cm) DryViewLaser Imaging Film, which is packaged in 125-sheet Kodak Instant Daylight LoadFilm Cartridges.A DryView V2 Keypad can be used to control the imager, or the system can becontrolled from the host modality. A footswitch is also available, providing an optionalmethod of acquiring images for printing.Figure 1-1. DryView 8100 Laser Imager

DryView 8100 Laser Imager User Guide1-2 8754020 2000 March Rev. BSystem ConfigurationsThe DryView 8100 Laser Imager can be used in two system configurations. The keyfeatures of these are described below.DryView 8100 Laser ImagerThe imager connects directly to up to three image source devices. (The standardunit has one input, but it can be upgraded for additional inputs.)Copper cables are used for connections to the source imaging device andkeypad.The operator controls image acquisition and printing from either a keypad or aconsole on the host source imaging device.Dryview 8100 PACS Link Laser ImagerThe imager connects to a DICOM medical image network via a PACS LinkInterface.The imager prints images sent from image source devices or archiving stationsconnected to the DICOM network.

DryView 8100 Laser Imager User Guide1-4 8754020 2000 March Rev. BHow the DryView 8100 Laser Imager WorksUsing the keypad or host console, the operator acquires an image from theimage source device. The image is stored on a hard disk in the imager.Using the keypad or host console, the operator prints the image.The following sequence occurs each time the operator issues a print command. Thestep numbers refer to the circled numbers in Figure 1-2. The dashed lines in theillustration indicate the film path.1. Suction cups lift a single sheet of film out of the supply cartridge and route it intothe film feed rollers.2. The film feed rollers move the film down to the platen rollers.3. The platen rollers drive the film into the exposure module platen.4. A moving laser beam writes the image onto film, which is held stationary in theplaten.5. The platen rollers reverse direction and move the exposed film up through thevertical transport area.6. Transport rollers drive the film onto the processor drum.7. The heated processor drum develops the film as it passes over the drum.8. Rollers move the developed film from the processor drum, through thedensitometer (see the next paragraph), and onto the receive tray.Automatic Image Quality ControlThe built-in densitometer is a key element in the Automatic Image Quality Control(AIQC) process. AIQC allows the imager to automatically adjust processingparameters to ensure optimum image quality. The imager adjusts these parameterseach time it prints a calibration film. A calibration film is printed whenever:The DryView 8100 Laser imager is powered on.A calibration film is requested from the Local Panel.The imager has not been used for 7 days, and a print is requested.Manual Mode of OperationThe imager can be operated in a “manual” mode, without AIQC. Use of this mode isexplained in Section 3 of this manual.

DryView 8100 Laser Imager User Guide3-2 8754020 2000 March Rev. BMethods for Acquiring and Printing ImagesThe basic operator functions required to acquire and print images on film are thefollowing:1. Selecting the number of copies to print.2. Selecting the format (order) in which the images will be printed on film.3. Acquiring the images from the host modality and storing them on hard disk in theimager.4. Printing the stored images on film.Other operator functions include:1. Erasing images stored on disk (before printing).2. Stopping a requested print job.The operator functions listed above can be processed in different ways:From a host console, using software programmed specifically for imager control.(See the host user documentation for operator instructions.)From a DryView V2 Keypad. (If your system includes this keypad, see Section 4for detailed procedures.) NoteAn optional footswitch can be used for acquisition of images from the hostmodality.Methods for Adjusting Image Density and ContrastThese image quality control functions can be performed in two ways:From the imager Local Panel, if your system does not include a DryView V2keypad. (See the instructions on the following pages in this section.)From a DryView V2 Keypad. (If your system includes this keypad, see Section 4for instructions. If it does not include this keypad, the procedures must beperformed from the Local Panel.)

Operation and Maintenance3-3 2000 March Rev. B 8754020Adjusting Density from the Local Panel NoteIf your system includes the DryView V2 Keypad, do not use this Local Panelprocedure. Use the keypad procedure described in Section 4. Values set at thekeypad will override any values set in the Local Panel.1. Press the Density key. The display will show DMAX = x.x. The number x.x is thevalue of the maximum density desired.2. Press the Test Print key. The imager will print a SMPTE test print.3. Examine the test print. If the maximum density on the test print is notacceptable, follow the steps below to adjust density.4. Press the Density key.5. Press the =key to increase density or the O key to decrease density. The displaywill show the new density value. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you reach anacceptable maximum density. NoteIf you know the desired Dmax value, you can simply enter the value withoutprinting a test print. Follow the steps below.1. Press the Density key.2. Press the =or O key until the desired value is displayed.3. Press the o (Enter) key to lock in the new value.8100 76LDensityTestPrintFigure 3-2. Local Panel Controls

DryView 8100 Laser Imager User Guide3-4 8754020 2000 March Rev. BAdjusting Contrast from the Local Panel NoteIf your system includes the DryView V2 Keypad, do not use this Local Panelprocedure. Use the keypad procedure described in Section 4. Values set at thekeypad will override any values set in the Local Panel.After acquiring an image, perform the following steps at the Local Panel.1. Press the Contrast key.The display will show CONTRAST = x, where x is a positive number from 1 to 15if the image is positive, or a negative 1 to 15 if the image is negative.2. Press the Test Print key.The imager will print a contrast print. The image you acquired is printed 15 timeson a single film, using contrast values of 1 through 15 if a positive image wasselected. If a negative image was selected, contrast values of negative 1through 15 are used. Contrast values are printed under each image. NoteIf the size of the acquired image is too large for a 15:1 format, the imager willprint a contrast test of the internal SMPTE image.3. Examine the contrast print and choose the most desirable contrast value.4. Press the Contrast key again.5. Use the =or O key to scroll to the chosen contrast value.6. Press the o(Enter) key to lock in the new value. NoteIf you know the desired contrast value, you can ignore steps 2, 3, and 4.Producing a Calibration Test PrintTo produce a calibration print (step wedge pattern) as the next film, press theCalibrate key on the Local Panel. (The system will interrupt a multiple-sheet print jobto produce the calibration print.)

Operation and Maintenance3-5 2000 March Rev. B 8754020Operating in Manual ModeThe calibration sheets produced by the imager (and the density patch at the top ofeach film) are products of the Automatic Image Quality Control (AIQC) system. Thissystem ensures that density, contrast and other image quality parameters areconstantly fine-tuned to produce high quality images.An error code P631 or P632 displayed on the Local Panel indicates that calibrationhas failed, that a print has failed to meet the AIQC standard. This occurrence isusually the result of aging film, and if you load a new film cartridge the error probablywill not recur. If, however, the error does recur with the new film, you will have to callservice to analyze the problem. Until the Field Engineer arrives, you can choose torun the imager in “manual” mode, without AIQC. To operate in manual mode:1. Simultaneously press the O Key and the Calibrate Key on the Local Panel. Themessage P561 Manual Mode will display. NoteWhile manual mode is in effect, the imager will not produce calibration printsand prints will not include density patches.2. Run a print and check image quality. As long as image quality is acceptable, youcan continue to run prints until the Field Engineer has repaired the imagerproblem. At this point you can resume operating with AIQC in effect.3. To exit manual mode and enter AIQC mode, press the Calibrate Key on theLocal Panel. (Loading a new film cartridge will return the imager to AIQC mode, ifthe new film is within the required operating parameters.) NoteManual Mode can be entered only when the P631 or P632 error code has beendisplayed.

Technical Information7-1 2000 March Rev. B 8754020Technical Information NoteThe information in this section relates to the characteristics of DryView LaserImaging Film, not to the operation of the DryView 8100 Laser Imager.General DescriptionDryView Laser Imaging Film is a high-resolution, infrared-sensitive,photothermographic film designed specifically for the new family of DryView LaserImaging Systems.This new film delivers the same diagnostic image quality you get with your currentsilver halide laser films – but it requires no “wet” chemistry, no “wet” film processors,and no darkroom procedures. This means there is no need for special plumbing, wetchemistry disposal procedures, or modifications to your facility. This new film ispackaged in daylight load packages and is available in 14 inch by 17 inch size. It isavailable in blue or clear, 7 mil polyester base.Spectral SensitivityDryView Laser Imaging Film is infrared sensitive and has been sensitized to theinfrared laser diode of DryView Laser Imaging Systems. When handled accordingto instructions on the film package, safelights are not needed. It is notrecommended, but if you remove undeveloped film from the daylight load package,you will need a darkroom setting and a green safelight.Sensitometric CharacteristicsRELATIVE LOG EXPOSURE0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 300.511.522.533.5DENSITY

DryView 8100 Laser Imager User Guide7-2 8754020 2000 March Rev. BImage QualityDryView Laser Imaging Film delivers diagnostic-quality, continuous-tone imagesalong with sharp alphanumerics and optimum contrast. This high-quality silver-basedfilm provides radiologists with the same diagnostic information they are accustomedto viewing – including the spatial resolution, contrast, and gray levels. Plus, becauseit is a totally dry imaging process, there is no image quality variability due to “wet”chemistry.Automatic Image Quality ControlDryView Laser Imaging Film is system-matched for the unique Automatic ImageQuality Control (AIQC) technology. This fully automated system, which is a standardfeature of DryView Laser Imaging Systems, is designed to ensure that contrast,density, and other image quality parameters meet preset user preferences,film-to-film, lot-to-lot.Barcode information on each film cartridge allows the DryView 8100 Laser Imager toautomatically determine film type, the number of sheets remaining, and the filmmanufacturing lot. The AIQC uses this information to automatically calibrate theimager’s electronics and optimize image quality without operator intervention.The AIQC also reads a special density patch printed on each 14 inch by 17 inchsheet of DryView Laser Imaging Film as it passes through a built-in densitometer.Slight density variations are corrected automatically.

77°F41°F25°C5°CTEMPTechnical Information7-3 2000 March Rev. B 8754020Less Impact on the EnvironmentDisposal regulations and procedures for “wet” processing chemistry aretime-consuming and expensive. And even with the most exacting procedures, thepotential exists to discharge hazardous materials into the environment.Tests show that DryView Laser Imaging Film is not considered hazardous to theenvironment. As a result, you can develop, recycle, and dispose of films with lessimpact on the environment than if you were using wet developed silver halide films. DryView Laser Imaging FilmEnvironmental Regulations ComparisonWet Silver Halide DryViewDeveloper Fixer Wash Film FilmProductRegulationOSHA MSDSDOTUse PermitsRequiredHazardousLocalRequiredHazardousLocalNot RequiredNo LimitsNoneNot RequiredNo LimitsNoneProvidedNo LimitsNoneDisposal *RegulationEPADOTHazardousHazardousHazardousHazardousNoNoNoNoNoNoNote: There is no SUPERFUND liability with DryView Laser Imaging Film.* State and local laws vary. Consult appropriate regulations or authorities prior to disposal.Storage and Handling of Undeveloped FilmAs with other laser imaging films, to achieve consistentresults up to the expiration date indicated on the filmpackage, DryView Laser Imaging Film must be storedin a cool, dry place (41°F/5°C to 77°F/25°C) andprotected from radiation and chemistry fumes.The film can also withstand short-term temperature spikes (up to 95°F/35°C forseveral hours) during transit without any significant effect on film quality orperformance. Transit temperatures above 95°F/35°C will gradually diminish shelf life.If the Automatic Image Quality Control system (AIQC) encounters film that has beendamaged by improper handling, it will automatically alert system operators beforethe film is developed.

DryView 8100 Laser Imager User Guide7-4 8754020 2000 March Rev. BHandling of Developed FilmAs with other photographic films or data storage materials, the handling of DryViewLaser Imaging Film requires reasonable care. Spills, humidity, and other moisturetypically have no significant effect on developed films. Prolonged exposure tointense light or excessive heat (130°F/54.4°C for more than 3 hours) may causesome gradual darkening of images. Leaving films in vehicles in hot climates forextended periods of time is not recommended.Under typical working conditions, DryView Laser Imaging Film will maintaindiagnostic quality for over 30 years. For best results, store film in sleeves when notbeing reviewed. DryView Laser Imaging Film can be left on a light box for more than24 hours; in extreme cases in which light boxes are exceptionally hot (120°F/49°C),we recommend removing them prior to 8 hours of continuous exposure.Care should be taken when using spotlight viewing for more than 30 seconds,because temperatures near the light source may exceed 180°F/82.2°C. Use in slideprojectors is not recommended due to the high temperatures generally found inthese devices.With the new DryView technology, a small amount of final development occurs whenthe film exits the DryView Laser Imager and is initially exposed to ambient or viewbox lighting. This is virtually undetectable and has no effect on image quality (i.e.,typically 0.02 change in density). This small density increase is uniform andpermanent upon full exposure of the film under normal handling conditions (i.e.,room light or view box).Archivability of Developed FilmDryView Laser Imaging Film is fully archivable for more than 100 years when storedat American National Standards Institute (ANSI) recommended storage conditions(77°F/25°C). Developed films may be stored at higher temperatures, but that mayaffect archivability. For example, storing films at a constant elevated temperature of90°F/32.2°C may reduce archivability to 30 years.Exposure to MoistureWhile moisture can damage traditional wet processed silver halide films, DryViewLaser Imaging Films typically withstand humidity, spills, and other forms of waterwithout any significant effect on image quality or film integrity. If needed, films can becleaned with a clean, damp cloth.

Technical Information7-5 2000 March Rev. B 8754020Odor DissipationThe “wet” chemistry associated with the development of silver halide film createsstrong, unpleasant odors. By eliminating “wet” chemistry, DryView technologyeliminates virtually all of these odors. While some low-level odors are producedduring the development process, they pose no known adverse health risks.Processing odor levels are further reduced by a non-hazardous, recyclable filter inDryView Laser Imaging Systems. This filter traps most low-level odors and preventsthem from dissipating into the work environment. To help maintain optimumperformance, the filter requires periodic replacement as specified in the DryViewLaser Imager User’s Manual. Unlike silver halide systems, DryView Laser Imagersrequire no special venting.Heat DissipationDryView Laser Imaging Systems use controlled heat to develop DryView LaserImaging Films. The heat has virtually no effect on the air temperature of the workarea. The amount of heat dissipated into an area during a day is typically less thanthe heat generated by four 100-watt light bulbs.Film RecyclingAccording to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards, DryView LaserImaging Film is not considered hazardous – so unlike typical “wet” films, these filmsrequire no special disposal procedures. But they do contain silver and polyester thatmay be recovered by using one of several recycling processes.If you are interested in recycling and silver recovery, Kodak can provide your localrecyclers with the information they need to get started. In some countries, nationalcontracts have been established with recycling firms. Call your local Kodak salesrepresentative for more information about these contracts.
