I'm hoping someone can help us make sense of the Technique Chart for the Fuji CR system we use in our clinics (model CR-IR 357, manufactured in 2008) ... I have searched and searched online Fuji materials and can't find the answers I need.
I believe I was told that, for the mAs settings, "small" is for a child, "medium" is for a small adult, and "large" is for an average-sized adult. Is that correct?
Since each operator's idea of what constitutes a "small adult" vs. an "average sized adult", can you offer any guidance on height-weight ranges?
In some radiography training material we have used, it indicates that:
For every 2 cm SMALLER thickness than the given range, you decrease the mAs by 1/5th.
For every 2 cm LARGER thickness than the given range, you increase the mAs by 1/3rd.
The "MEASUREMENT (CM)" column seems to indicate that the measurement range applies to the MEDIUM patient size range.
How can we figure out what size ranges apply to SMALL and LARGE?
Then, if a patient part is below or above those ranges, we could use the mAs 1/5th and 1/3rd calculations ...
Thank you in advance for any guidance you can provide.
Hi guys, My Fuji Capsular X CR digital xray processor is about 9 years old and still working fine? Do these systems ever need servicing? If so, what might the typical cost be for this? Regards Craig RE: Fujifilm - Capsula X CR-IR 357
Dear all
This is concerning an issue with my FCR scanner (CR-IR 357 model).
I have introduced or slotted the CR cassette into the scanner and after processing or digitalizing the image the scanner was unable to release the CR cassette. It was gammed and stays inside.
Please someone help me out on this issue. I would very much appreciate your help or email me via; lawrance.karato16@gmail.com
Thanks
