SectionA Introduction

The document provides an overview of the DROC system, including its components, peripheral devices, and image acquisition workflow. The DROC software works with an exposure synchronizing device and E-COM dongle. It can connect to devices like detectors, X-ray generators, and collimators. The DROC allows accessing worklists, re-examining and reprocessing images, and protecting patient records. It follows different workflows depending on whether the site uses bar code scanning for patient ID.

Introduction

Introduction

The DROC is the user interface application of the Digital Radiography System. New patient
register/Worklist retrieving, exposure control, image processing and data transmitting are all
achieved at the DROC. The DROC also provides the control functions responsible for
synchronizing the ready states of the Detector and the X-ray equipment.

The DROC is composed of following components:

 DROC software
 E-COM dongle
 Exposure Synchronizing Device

In practice, the peripheral devices which collaborate with DROC to make an entire DR
system for actual operation MIGHT involve:

 PC with monitor, keyboard, pointing device (mouse or trackball), and network card.
 Prep/Exposure switch
 Detector
 X-ray high frequency generator
 Collimator
 Auto-positioning supporting system
 Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) is extremely recommended to ensure the
uninterrupted power for the PC
 Bar Code Reader; supports a Hospital Information System/Radiology Information
System (HIS/RIS) interface

The recommended PC hardware for DROC, anyway, a high performance computer is


strongly recommended to improve the system stability.

 OS: Windows 7/8/10

Operations Performed

There are many operations that you can perform on DROC. The standard functions are
listed in Table 1, and from where you can also find some more information about each.

As the DROC program is always working with various x -ray devices and detectors, there

Introduction

Image Acquisition Workflow

1.The start of the workflow depends on whether your site is using a bar code reader.

If your site is using patient ID or accession number bar codes, HDFK SDWLHQW¶V
image acquisition session starts when you scan a patient ID or accession number bar
code.

Then:
 If your site supports a connection to a Hospital Information System, Radiology
Information System, or other remote patient database, the DROC application
queries that database for the ID.
 If your site does not support such a remote database connection, the DROC
application searches its local database for the patient ID or accession number.
Patients and related patient/visit information are kept temporarily (the time interval
to save is defined by configuration). The storage space availability limits the saving
interval as well.

 Searching for and selecting an existing patient who has recently been X-rayed, if
the patient's record is still stored in the application's local database.
 If the patient's record is not in the local database, manually specifying the patient
and related patient/visit information.
