LightSpeed 5.X (60kW)
Symptom
Customer reports the image’s skip Anatomy (example) from slice 4 to slice 5 - document in RFS - critical issue See Long Description Customer reports the image’s skip Anatomy from slice 4 to slice 5. Looking at the scouts the system appears to skip/jump the anatomy between image four and image five. The Scan technique is a 4I 2.5mm The Skip in the anatomy is always on the second gantry rotation since this is a 4I one second scan the issue shows up between image 4 and 5. Skipping anatomy is repeatable if the customer changes the table height after the confirm button is hit. In this case the skip is between the fourth and fifth image and repeatable - but intermittent. The Customer believe this is an intermittent problem since they do not realize the connection between the table elevation change and the skipped anatomy.

The new software version string has the following format: <software_label>.<G>_<T>_<D>_<R> The "software label" format is: YYLWxx.ZZ Where: YY = Year. For example 04. L = Location. M - Milwaukee, H - Hino, B - Beijing. Wxx = Fiscal Week. For example, W15. ZZ = Revision number for each build/reroll. Refer to Table B for an explanation of the <G>_<T>_<D>_<R> format.

The information for the dynamic part of the string is obtained from the INFO files which are located in /usr/g/config directory. An example string based on the above format is as follows: 04MW13.7.H2_P_M4_G The break down is as follows: This is 2004 software release at Milwaukee in Fiscal Week 13 with a revision number "7". The hardware configuration is "H2" gantry with "Performix" tube, "MDAS4", and "GRE" recon hardware.
