- | [[dosimetry: | + | ==== System Calibration ==== |
+ | The decimal3D application relies on both the Structure Sensor Mark II and built-in iPad color camera. Proper operation of the decimal3D App requires that these two components be properly calibrated to ensure accurate alignment of scanned image colorization. A calibrator app has been provided with your iPad and the system is shipped pre-calibrated. However, part of the regular maintenance of the decimal3D application is for users to verify and adjust the calibration every 6 months OR anytime the Mark II Sensor is removed from the iPad OR anytime the system is subjected to an impact (e.g. fall or drop) that may have jarred or shifted the Sensor. The calibration procedure is simple and the provided calibrator app walks users through adjusting and testing the system' | ||
+ | ===== Known Limitations ===== | ||
+ | Below are listed the known application limitations, | ||
- | === Release Notes === | + | - Treatment position information (e.g. isocenter, gantry angle, couch angle, collimator angle) is not available at this time as there is no sufficient link between the scanner coordinate and treatment machine coordinate systems |
+ | - Site information including Machine and Address Settings cannot be edited from decimal3D (these can be edited using .decimal' | ||
+ | - User passwords cannot be changed within the decimal3D App (please log in to direct.dotdecimal.com to change your password or contact .decimal customer service to request a password reset) | ||
+ | - Patient Databases are stored locally on each iPad, so facilities with more than one iPad will not be able to access all patient records from each iPad (note: once an Order is place however, the order information is available via direct.dotdecimal.com, | ||
+ | - Once a scan has been created its name cannot be edited (scan names are for convenience only and are used only for convenience in the application) | ||
+ | - Once a beam has been created its name cannot be edited (beam names are used as part of the cutout engraving text, therefore if an appropriate name was used, we recommend that you create a new beam with the desired name, using the same parameters, and then delete the wrongly named beam) | ||
