Before acquisition, you can edit the name of the OGP on the thumbnail image by single-clicking the name field in examination mode. After acquisition, you can edit the name of the OGP on the thumbnail image by double-clicking the name field in patient mode or examination mode. Layer 1: The OGP name of the Ortho group can be edited under Ortho OGP list in examination mode before acquisition. Once it has been edited, the names of all the individual Ortho OGPs in this group will be changed accordingly. Layer 2: The names of all the single Ortho OGPs can be edited on the thumbnail image by double-clicking the name field in patient mode after acquisition. In this case, if the name of one individual Ortho OGP is changed, the names of the rest of the individual Ortho OGPs will also be changed accordingly. Layer 3: If the name of the OGP has been edited, an asterisk appears in front of the new OGP on the thumbnail image in both patient mode and examination mode. Layer 4: If Hybrid Image Documentation (HID) is enabled, editing the name of the OGP will cause the name of the HID image to be modified accordingly as well. Layer 5: There are a few limitations when changing the OGP name. You cannot edit the name of the composed image called Ortho_Finished in an ortho study. And you can never include an asterisk as the first letter or the string Ortho_Finished as a new name. Layer 6: [OGP name change fina Project.mp4] 7 OGP name modification – video Please note: This video does not contain audio. 6 Limitations You cannot edit the name of the composed image called Ortho_Finished in an ortho study. You can never include an asterisk (*) as the first letter or the string Ortho_Finished as a new name. 5 Hybrid Image Documentation (HID) If Hybrid Image Documentation (HID) is enabled, editing the name of the OGP will cause the name of the HID image to be modified accordingly as well. 4 Labeling If the name of the OGP has been edited, an asterisk appears in front of the new OGP on the thumbnail image in both patient mode and examination mode. 3 Single Ortho OGP The names of all the single Ortho OGPs can be edited on the thumbnail image by double-clicking the name field in patient mode after acquisition. In this case, if the name of one individual Ortho OGP is changed, the names of the rest of the individual Ortho OGPs will also be changed accordingly. In this example, the new names are FullSpine lat_w180_t130_1, FullSpine lat_w180_t130_2 and FullSpine lat_w180_t130_3. 2 Ortho OGP list The OGP name of the Ortho group can be edited under Ortho OGP list in examination mode before acquisition.

Closing a study without MPPS [audf_mxi_va21e_5.2.mp3] In previous software versions of the Multix Impact family, if MPPS was not configured, there was no pop-up dialogue when switching back to the patient list. This meant that if there were unacquired OGP tiles after finishing the examination, the study with unacquired OGPs remained in the Pre-registered Patients tab card. With VA21E, there are multiple options in the User Settings to customize system behavior according to your preferences. Layer 1: This overview provides an explanation of the Show study status dialog options. Layer 2: Please note: If the MPPS node is configured, the Show study status dialog option in the User Settings is dimmed and not available. By default, the option No, the study with unacquired OGP will not be closed is selected. 3 Show study status dialog – default settings Please note: If the MPPS node is configured, the Show study status dialog option in the User Settings is dimmed and not available. By default No, the study with unacquired OGP will not be closed is selected. 2 Show study status dialog – options Table with 3 columns and 2 rows Yes No, the study with unacquired OGP will be closed automatically No, the study with unacquired OGP will NOT be closed The study status dialogue is displayed. If “In progress” is selected, the study will remain in the Pre-registered Patients. If “Closed” is selected, the study will be closed and transferred to the Examined Patients tab. The study status dialogue is not displayed. All studies will be closed automatically, independent of the OGP status (acquired or un-acquired). The study dialogue is not displayed. Studies, where all OGPs have been acquired are closed and transferred to the Examined Patients tab. Studies, where not all OGPs have not been acquired, will not be closed. Closing a study without MPPS 1 Previous software versions: If Modality Performed Procedure Steps (MPPS) was not configured, there was no pop-up dialog when switching back to the patient list.

Miscellaneous Improvements in Post-Processing System configuration Patient & Examination Workflow 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 Course Review Miscellaneous Date of birth on TUI: By default, the patient's date of birth is now displayed on the Touch User Interface (TUI) of the tube. Image Processing message: During the processing of an image, an Image Processing message is now displayed at the bottom of the image. Handgrip: A new lateral handgrip has been introduced that is tiltable and adjustable for correct patient positioning. This handgrip is optional, and the previous handgrip remains available in the pricebook. Database import: Older database versions (VA20 or VA21) can now be imported into a VA21E Multix Impact system. However, a VA21E database cannot be imported into older system versions (except VA21D). After a database has been imported into a VA21E system, a pop-up message will indicate that the import was successful and will prompt a system reboot. System configuration Auto Accept And Show Image: This new feature automatically accepts and displays the image in full size after acquisition. All post-processing functionalities and reject/accept buttons are dimmed, and the system switches to the next organ program (OGP) in examination mode after 3 seconds. The feature can only be enabled if Auto Accept Image is selected in the Examination Properties. Closing a study without MPPS: The VA21E version offers multiple options in the User Settings to customize system behavior when MPPS is not configured. This includes a pop-up dialog when switching back to the patient list, which was not available in previous versions. Detent engagement optimization: This optimization applies only to the Multix Impact C. The transversal detent is engaged according to the currently selected acquisition type (Wall, Table, or Free). All detents are active when the examination mode is exited. DICOM tag for worklist query: The modality worklist (MWL) node in the DICOM nodes now offers Radio Frequency (RF) as a modality filter. Post-processing Auto-window enhancement: Once enabled in the User Settings, the window value is automatically calculated based on the desired planning area. This includes automatic calculation of the window value and exposure index value after the mask has been adjusted manually. Arrow tool: A new arrow tool has been introduced in the post-processing mode, allowing users to draw arrows to highlight important landmarks in the image. To delete an arrow, simply right-click and select delete. L/R label font size adjustment: The default font size for the left and right (L/R) labels has been enlarged to improve visualization. Users can now individually adjust the font size for L/R labels and other texts. This can be preset in the User Settings under Image Processing Properties. Free rotation: Images can be rotated freely and are no longer restricted to 1° or 90° increments. Enable the Rotate Custom button and move the mouse to rotate the image. Image rejection: Rejected images are not selected by default, to prevent them being sent accidentally to the PACS. Rejected images are crossed out in the Patient Registration, View mode, and Print mode. This feature needs to be enabled in the User Settings. Patient & Examination Workflow Study Description filter: You can now filter your patient list using the Study Description query field, which applies to both pre-registered and examined patients. Resuming examinations: It is now possible to resume the examination of a closed study using the new function in the Examined Patients tab in patient mode. OGP layout improvement: Sorting by Accession Number and rearranging the order of OGPs within the same Accession Number is possible, and information on the corresponding study can be found. Exposure Parameters adjustment: You can adjust exposure parameters (kV, mAs, etc.) by scrolling up and down for faster selection. Incremental step adjustment is still available by clicking the + and – icons. Patient Size and Mode adaptation: Changing the Patient Size or Mode for one OGP will apply the change to the rest of the OGPs within the same study or accession number. OGP name modification: You can edit the name of the OGP on the thumbnail image before and after acquisition, with specific steps for Ortho OGPs.
