Acquiring Single Image Using RVG 142, RVG 5200 & RVG 6200

To acquire a single image using RVG 142, RVG 5200 and RVG 6200, follow these steps:

  1. Tell the patient to remain still.
  2. Position yourself either two meters behind the X-ray source or outside the door.
important_icon IMPORTANT: Make sure you can keep visual contact with the patient during the X-ray.
  1. In the Dental Imaging Software toolbar, make sure that the RVG_Icon_Green icon is displayed indicating that the RVG sensor is connected to the workstation and is ready for acquisition.
  2. Trigger the X-ray with the remote control of the X-ray source.

The image is immediately displayed in the Imaging Window (Dental Imaging Software).

  1. Check the image and if the quality is:
    1. Not satisfactory, for example, if the exposure quality indicator is red, retake the X-ray.
    2. Satisfactory, remove the X-ray source tube head.

ControlPanel+CalloutIdeal image quality is achieved when the Control Panel exposure indicator is a full green bar. This example shows the RVG 6200 Control Panel with exposure indicator (A). Avoid under-exposed or over-exposed images indicated by a partial or full red bar:

  1. Remove the RVG sensor from the mouth of the patient.
  2. Remove the hygienic sensor protection and throw it away.
important_icon IMPORTANT: Do NOT pull the RVG sensor by its cable when you remove the hygienic protection.
  1. Clean and disinfect the RVG sensor after each patient (see the RVG 142, RVG 5200 and RVG 6200 Safety, Regulatory, and Technical Specifications User Guide (SM847)).
  2. If required, use the CS Adapt Library software in CS Imaging Software to manage the sensor brightness/contrast filters (RVG 6200 only) as follows:
    1. Create custom filters by copying and editing existing factory preset filters.
    2. Use the Favorite function to select which filters are displayed in the Control Panel.
    3. Use the Acquisition Default function to automatically apply the selected filter at acquisition time.
    4. Import or export filter libraries.
