Introduction
Welcome to Nucline SPIRIT DH-V, an up-to-date digital gamma camera system ideally
suited for planar static, dynamic as well as SPECT and whole body imaging applications with
high patient throughput requirements. To extend the usefulness of Nucline SPIRIT DH-V,
the system includes the optional ECG gated acquisition capability which allows performing
gated cardiac planar and gated cardiac SPECT studies.
To enhance system features toward higher resolution imaging, Mediso presents the HR
detectors option utilizing thinner NaI(Tl) detector crystal, most suitable under gamma photon
energies of 200 keV. The Nucline SPIRIT DH-V HR camera has excellent spatial resolution
when combined with Low Energy Ultra High Resolution LEUHR collimators.
For image processing facility, as of this time, you can directly connect one or more instances
of Medisos Nucline P image processing workstations and a number of image processing
workstations marketed by other manufacturers.
Beyond the above standard options the acquisition system can be configured to transfer the
acquired studies to multiple networked processing workstations in several other file formats
such as Dicom 3.0, Interfile 3.3 and direct file formats supported by a number of other
manufacturers' image processing systems.

1.3.2 Preventing Collisions

Nucline SPIRIT DH-V systems are equipped with collision detect sensors, which are
located on the front plane of the collimator. If collision is detected by the sensor plate,
18/218
05/05/2006

all gantry motions stop to prevent the hazards of personal injury or equipment
damage. However, collisions can occur in spite of this safety feature.
Use increased care to prevent collisions in the following cases:
Positioning in MANUAL OVERRIDE mode. Collision detect is disabled when the
system is in MANUAL OVERRIDE mode. To a greater extent, it is the operator's
responsibility to ensure that the gantry does not contact the patient or other
equipment in MANUAL OVERRIDE mode.
Preprogrammed motions. The gantry and detector will automatically move to a
predefined position during preprogrammed motions. Ensure that no obstruction is
present on the anticipated motion path of the selected preprogrammed motion Do
not start a preprogrammed motion if the patient is on the imaging table.
Acquisitions utilizing computer controlled motions. The gantry and detector will
automatically move along the defined motion path during whole body and SPECT
acquisitions. Before SPECT and whole body acquisitions, it is important to
manually run the detector along the motion path to ensure that sufficient clearance
from the patient and imaging table is kept at all positions. Vigilantly watch the
patient during computer controlled motions so that you may intervene if necessary.
Special patient positions. Patient is more exposed to collision situations when they
cannot lie flat, have an arm extended or are connected to other external medical
equipment.
General principles:
CAUTION
Ensure a qualified operator is always present when the patient is on the imaging
table. Watch the patient vigilantly while the gantry is in motion.
Use manual positioning instead of preprogrammed motions if the patient is on the
imaging table.
Position the patient, imaging table and gantry carefully before starting acquisitions
which utilize computer controlled motions. Verify by manual control that the defined
settings ensure unobstructed motion of the detector and gantry.
Automatic (computer controlled, preprogrammed) motions can be halted immediately
by pressing any button on the handcontroller. Press any button on the handcontroller
to stop an automatic motion, if collision danger is impending due to the patient's
accidental movement or an incorrect gantry position. Make sure the obstruction is
cleared before restarting an acquisition.
In case of emergency, push one of the red colored Emergency Stop (E-STOP)
switches at the following locations:
Red E-STOP button on the handcontroller ( Figure 5 Handcontroller)
H
Red E-STOP button on the gantry ( Figure 1 Gantry with 2 detectors assembled)
H
Red E-STOP knob on the acquisition console ( Figure 2 Acquisition console)

H
Red E-STOP knob on the back panel of the imaging table ( Figure 3 Imaging table
with head holder assembled)
H
By activating any of the E-STOP switches, you interrupt the power line to all gantry
motors and imaging table motors, and all motions stop quickly.

1.4 Patient Safety and Emergency Case

1.4.1 Patient Handling
1. During studies, monitor the patient during the entire scan to ensure that the patient
maintains appropriate positioning relative to the Gantry.
WARNING
Unintended motion could cause injury. Never leave the patient unattended and
always monitor the position of the patient and equipment during scan procedures.
2. Potential Pacemaker Hazard - though the possibility of interference with
pacemakers is small, the operator should be alert to such a potential hazard from
any equipment using high frequency electrical signals
3. Never exceed the rated load of patient handling devices.
4. The user should be aware of system limitations regarding particularly large or
overweight patients. Please be aware of any particular system limits or safety
precautions and labels regarding large or overweight patients. In case of doubt,
please contact your vendor.
WARNING
Large or overweight patients may encounter difficulties with the physical
clearance of the system.
WARNING
Never exceed the rated load of patient handling devices - the table rating is 200
kg (440 lb) - as this may cause damage to equipment and possible injury.
1.4.2 Patient Positioning

The operator should:
Always assist the patients with getting on or off the imaging table.
Ensure that the patients are positioned securely on the stretcher, and not in danger
of falling.
Ensure that patients do not raise their heads or move their bodies during scans.
Ensure that obstacles do not interfere with the movement of the imaging table.
Ensure that patients are positioned with their heads in the direction of the controls.
Advise the patients not to move during the positioning and study procedures.
Make sure that the patients arms are positioned appropriately behind their heads
so as not to interfere between the table and gantry while the table is being moved
into acquisition position.
WARNING
Make sure that any patient connected lines, tubes etc. are long enough to allow
for the full travel of the system, without pulling or restricting.
20/218
05/05/2006
1.4.3 Emergency Case

System operation may be stopped due to power failure or a safety event (something
coming into contact with the collision sensors), or the system may be halted by the
operator in response to emergency conditions.
In any case, the operator must first ensure that the patient is safely removed using the
appropriate removal procedure.
1.4.4 Power Failure Procedure

Unless an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is installed in the camera system,
hospital power failures cause detector and table motions to stop. If a longer power
outage is anticipated and the table position prohibits the patient from freely getting off
the pallet, do the following:
1. Hold on to the pallet handle, and slowly pull the pallet away from the gantry while
using special care that the patient does not collide with the detectors.
2. If the detector radius is too tight to pull the patient all the way out, pull the pallet
only until it clears the pallet extend support. Then unlock the imaging table from the
floor sockets, and hold on to the table handles. Slide the table itself with increased
care to avoid patient injury.
3. Remove the patient.
WARNING
Remove the patient carefully, because the pallet is not locked.
1.4.5 When Electrical Power is Restored

The gamma camera detector contains components that are designed to operate on
continuous power supply. Power interrupts can adversely affect the detectors
condition. If the power to the system is removed for a longer time period (exceeding
approximately 30 minutes), it is advisable to perform the uniformity test (described in
5.3.1 Intrinsic uniformity test) to see if the detector maintained its original condition
following the power failure. If the uniformity parameters worsened, perform the energy
and uniformity calibration.
H
IMPORTANT
Revision 1.02
Do not immediately proceed with tests or calibration, after electrical power is

restored, but allow sufficient time for the detector to warm up. It is
recommended to wait twice the time the power was off.
21/218
Nucline SPIRIT DH-V
Service Manual
1.5 Data Safety

1.5.1 General
Verify and record the patients identification before starting a scan.
CAUTION
It is highly recommended to always make a backup of image data in case of
possible medium breakdown.
1.5.2 Connectivity
Always verify that the data transferred to another system has been correctly received.
1.6 Safe Operation Guidelines

The detectors move in the closed casing of the gantry, so the motion of detectors does not
constitute a hazard point for personal injury.
CAUTION
Do not put hands under table top when rotating table around the telescopes axis
of rotation.
CAUTION
Always check for obstructions before moving the Imaging Table.

2.5 Collimators and collimator carts

2.5.1 Collimators
Nucline SPIRIT DH-V collimators consist of a honeycomb structured lead core with
a support frame. Since, in this geometry, the holes are perpendicular to the detector
plane, the gamma radiation transmitted produces a parallel projection on the detector.
Collimators are available for different energy ranges and resolutions. Always install a
collimator corresponding to the energy of the radionuclide you use, otherwise the
imaging performance of the system will not be optimal.
The following table contains the specification for the available collimators:

2.5.2 Collimator carts

Collimators are heavy in addition to being fragile. Collimator exchange is aided by a
mobile storage rack (collimator cart). Each collimator cart allows the storage of two
collimators. Collimators are suspended on the four support studs of the cart.
Automatic safety locks prevent collimators from slipping off the cart.

2.6 Gantry Operation Modes

Browsing in menu system you have the opportunity to choose a menu item and start a
predefined motion. In Normal Mode you can generally do the following: to step on the next
menu item you have to push the <MODE> button on the handcontroller and to choose and
run the displayed motion you have to push the <START> button. Normal modes are: Manual
Mode and Collision Override mode if collimators are not equipped.
Several problems could occur during system operation that can halt and restrict
preprogrammed motions. It could happen because of hardware failure, power failure,
incorrect manipulation of the apparatus or as a result of the administrators activity. In case
of breaking off the motions the MODE: field on your display will change. Into the modes
named Error Mode, Emergency Mode, Collision Mode, Service Mode and if you had a
collision with equipped collimators, after pushing the <MODE> button you get the Collision
Override mode.
If the problem is more difficult, it is possible that you have to solve the problem using
Service Mode.

3.14 AMC servo burning

Necessary tools for work:
Special cable, which has a 9pin DSUB female connector and two 44pin DSUB (a female
and a male)
Supply cable is a simple two wire cable with a switch.
Install CD (including servo_burn.zip file and users guide in pdf format)

Tools for servo burning
Work processes:
1. Console PC
a. Create an "amc" named directory in the console c:\gantry and copy all files from the
attached servo_burn.zip file into here.
b. Start the GantryUpgrade utility, reset the Gantry Computer and upload the
00000001.LOG file from gantry D: drive.
c. You should to find a line (somewhere in the top of the file) which starts with CANdrv:
installed on port: xxxx (the port number might be 1000 or 2000). Keep it in your mind,
which value was there. Download all the files from console c:\gantry\amc directory to
the gantry C:\ drive. Close GantryUpgrade
2. Gantry
a. You need 24V logic supply for servo burning. Your cable was designed to get this
voltage from the detector servo filter panel set the gantry to the most convenient
position (in Manual Override mode), because during the servo burning there is no
motor power and no motion control.
b. Push the Emergency button and shut down the whole system (by a big black switch).
Remove the detector head cover. If the rotation servo is the damaged one, you should
to remove the complete back cover (and -I think- the rear telescope) also. Otherwise
you should to remove the left (rear view) small cover only. Remove the damaged
servo, after that reconnect any other parts (the interface board, the filter panel) and be
sure, there is no possibility of short circuit (the Filter panel is the critical point!).
c. Insert the special cable between the Gantry Computer and its cable. Unplug the
ventilator cable from the Radius Filter panel and connect the switched off Supply
cable.
d. Turn on the system.

4.2.1 Partitioning of the Hard Disk Drive:
In case of a totally destroyed program if the Hard Disk is not damaged the best way to
build up a working Console system is to start the installation of the programs quite at
the beginning. It means the partitioning and formatting of the Hard Disk. The user
does have all of the necessary tools to perform an installation including the last setting
of the Detector parameters as well as setting of the servo controlling system in the
Gantry. Anyway the presence of a CD drive gives the opportunity to save the Console
and the Gantry libraries on a CD. Saving them it makes possible to look for old
correction maps and settings of the Detector and the Gantry as well as for the A/D
board.
4.2.1.1 How to start to build up the new Hard Disk:

The rest of this chapter gives general instructions about calibrations; the following
chapters describe the processes in detail.
Calibrations can be initiated from the Calibration menu in Service Mode. Processes
are described from the point of entering Service Mode.
Before starting any calibration process make sure that the following preconditions are
met:
Make sure that both collimators are installed.
Collimators are needed for some calibrations (radius and table height calibrations).
Turn the gantry and the console PC on.
Turn main gantry power on, and then turn on the Console if camera is off. Wait until
both the gantry and the console boot up. Gantry makes a beep when booted up.
Console startup will take longer by a minute or so.
Press <RESUME> on the handcontroller to display the Gantry Window.
Program waits for passing the collision sensor test.
Push both collision plates.
Program will display that positions are invalid.
Do NOT start homing or any menu procedures.
