Intended Use
This device must only be used to scan exposed X-ray cassettes, containing an
erasable image plate (IP). The digitizer is part of a system, consisting of X-ray
cassettes with erasable phosphor image plates and a workstation where the X-
ray cassettes are identified and the resulting digital image information is
further processed and routed. It is intended that this device is only operated
in a radiological environment by qualified staff.
Intended User
This manual has been written for trained users of Agfa products and trained
diagnostic X–Ray clinical personnel who have received proper training.
Users are those persons who actually handle the equipment and those who
have authority over the equipment.
Before attempting to work with this equipment, the user must read,
understand, note and strictly observe all warnings, cautions and safety
markings on the equipment.
