Capturing images
1. If the highlighted shot is not the one you want to capture first, select the shot you want.
2. Set the generator technique values, and position the patient.
3. Confirm that the Ready icon is green in the Study window, and then capture the image.
4. Repeat the steps above to take the remaining images.
Tip: Use the following buttons to add or replace shots:
Add more shots. Replace currently selected shot with a different shot.
Add another instance of the currently selected shot. Take as many instances of the currently selected shot as needed.
Tap again to turn off, so you can take the next shot in the list.
Delete selected shot.
5. To edit an image, select its thumbnail, and then use the shortcut editing tools below the image, or tap to access
the complete tool palette.
Note: You can also use the IDEXX-PACS* Imaging Software to edit images after you complete the study.
6. Tap to complete and save the study. The images are sent to the IDEXX-PACS software.
Using the detector wirelessly
Your system installer will have inserted a battery into the detector. To use the detector wirelessly:
1. Slide the Bucky tray partly open, and then remove the tether cable by pressing the latches in and pulling the connector straight
out (not at an angle).
2. Remove the detector from the Bucky tray, and position it as needed. The two green status LEDs will be on when the
detector is ready for capture.
3. When finished capturing images, return the detector to the Bucky tray, and connect the cable by pressing it straight
into the detector.
Note: The battery may be left in while the detector is tethered and will charge while the system is in operation. See the battery
sections in the IDEXX ImageVue* DR50 Operator’s Guide for more information.
Viewing and editing images in a completed study
To view or edit an image in the ImageVue DR50 software:
