Combination Film & Paper DICOM Digitizer
Introducing the S6000 Film & Paper Digitizer, the most elegant way to
turn legacy x-ray films and paper reports into DICOM 3.0 compliant
images. Using a single scan path, the S6000 can scan both film and
paper back-to-back, creating a series of DICOM images that can be
added to existing PACS systems.
At 4.7 maximum optical density, the S6000 produces superb quality
digital images. Boasting a small footprint and weighing less than 20
lbs, the S6000 is incredibly light and very economical.
In combination with Acquisition & Viewing Software and a reliable
computer workstation, the S6000 becomes a turnkey scanning system
for all medical imaging facilities.
With 60 sheets per hour throughput, the S6000 provides a fast,
efficient and economical way to convert all analog records into the
industry standard DICOM format for digital storage, duplication and
transmission.
Product Features
The S6000 is capable of digitizing both film and paper – eliminating the need to have an additional document
scanner to scan paper reports. Film and paper sizes range from 2.5 to 17 inches. At only 19.8 lbs, the S6000 is
the smallest and lightest medical digitizer in the market. Easy maintenance, no moving parts and a cold cathode
light source design are some of the features that make this digitizer extremely reliable.
Image quality is assured with the “Automatic Calibration” feature, which activates before every scan. The
S6000 can digitize film and paper at resolutions up to 600 dots-per-inch, ranging from 1K by 1.5K all the way up
to 8K by 10K.
The S6000 can process and deliver 65,536 shades of gray at full 16 bits, compared to other scanners which max
out at 4096 shades of gray. The user can also select 256 shades of gray at 8 bits. Image control is assured
through a maximum optical density of 4.7. Brightness, contrast, gamma and exposure control (integration time)
are standardized throughout the hardware.
Wall mount brackets, output tray and a catch basket are included with S6000 to maximize your installation
options.
Full integration into Viewing Software
S6000 is fully integrated with a DICOM Diagnostic Viewing software. Using the acquisition module built into the
software, you can digitize both film and paper to create DICOM images. These images can be sent to a PACS for
storage or burned onto a CD or DVD. The software allows users to select modality, institution name, model
number and accession number while scanning films. Optional software features such as Modality Worklist may
be added to any system.
Optional Multi-Sheet Film Feeder
An optional Multi-Sheet Film Feeder allows for multiple films to be digitized at
one time. Up to 15 mixed-size films can be placed in the feeder for single-click
operation. Films are automatically scanned, cropped, adjusted and delivered
to the software. The Multi-Sheet Film Feeder plugs directly into the back of the
digitizer for a fast and seamless upgrade without the need for an additional
power source.
