Intended UseWorth Knowing
Depending on the configuration, other Instructions for Use may be delivered with the system,
and these should be consulted for safety instructions, calibration, test procedures and maintenance.
For installation, see the system's service documentation.
These Instructions for Use were originally drafted, approved and supplied by Philips in the English language.
Intended Use
The DigitalDiagnost C90 is intended to acquire, process, store, display and export digital radiographic images. The DigitalDiagnost C90 is suitable for all routine radiography examinations, including specialist areas like intensive care, trauma or pediatric work, excluding fluoroscopy, angiography and mammography.
Indications for Use
The system is suitable for all routine radiographic examinations, including specialist areas such
as intensive care, trauma, or pediatric work. Also advanced applications such as Bone Suppression shall be performed with the system.
Standard radiography procedures are, for example:
• X-ray examinations of the skeleton including skull, chest, spine, pelvis, upper extremities,
lower extremities, etc.
• X-ray examinations of the lungs
• X-ray examinations of soft tissue such as abdomen
• Overview image of the whole spine in vertical and horizontal patient position
• Overview image of the complete leg in vertical and horizontal patient position
The user has the following exposure techniques available:
• Detector exposure with a vertical, horizontal and/or oblique radiation beam
• Free exposure technique for free SkyPlate detector
• Free exposure technique for CR systems of Philips or other vendors and film cassettes
• Automatic exposure technique: AEC-kV-mA, AEC-kV with falling load
Intended Operator Profile
The system is used with different configurations. It is to be operated by radiographers (technologists). In some cases or countries it is to be operated by especially trained nurses or doctors
when no radiographer is available. Radiographers mostly schedule, prepare, perform, and final-
Philips4512 987 46122 AA/712 * MAR 2020

Worth KnowingContraindications
ize X-ray examinations and are responsible for the administrative work as well. The operator
must be able to physically operate the system. This includes sufficient capabilities in hearing,
vision, and mobility.
Minimum skills:
• Knowledge in westernized Arabic numerals
• Knowledge in general radiographic positioning and procedures
• Knowledge in anatomy
• Knowledge in radiation protection
• Knowledge in hygiene and basic infection control
The detailed qualifications required to operate an X-ray system are defined by local legal regulations.
Contraindications
No absolute contraindications are given for standard radiology. Due to the nature of X-ray procedures, the patient is exposed to radiation. Adverse health effects exist and are well known.
Therefore, the responsible radiologist must assess risks and benefits. The radiologist must identify relative contraindications, depending, for example, on available alternative diagnosis technologies.
Target Population
The DigitalDiagnost system is intended to support examinations on any kind of patient group
(all patients that enter the facility). Patients might be handicapped, immobile or frightened.
There are situations when it is indicated to avoid any unnecessary movement of the patient (for
example, multiple traumas). Typically, the patients are ill or suspected to be ill.
Patients can be:
• Very young or very old (from newborn to >100 years)
Plain radiography can provide detailed information to diagnose, plan treatment and evaluate
many conditions in adults and children. The DigitalDiagnost C90 system allows convenient and
reliable handling of standard radiographic examinations. In combination with state of the art
flat panel detectors and software, the system significantly minimizes the radiation exposure of
patients and personnel due to low dose exposure techniques. The detailed images provided by
X-ray imaging may eliminate the need for exploratory surgery. Furthermore, a software program tracks the patient doses for effective dose management in each clinic. The implemented
Bone Suppression feature improves the detection of abnormalities in chest radiographs (for
adult patients in erect position) and can increase the diagnostic value of the examination.
Stitching
Stitching of X-ray images is of interest in case of disease patterns like scoliosis or asymmetries in
the structure of leg bones. Under circumstances like these, a measurement of the leg or spine
as a whole is necessary.
SkyFlow
Scatter correction algorithm: It reduces the effect of scattered radiation for bedside chest examinations without grid. It saves time with grid-less workflow and benefits from automatic
image contrast enhancement.
UNIQUE 2
Philips has redesigned the image processing algorithm (UNIQUE) for X-ray projection images.
UNIQUE is a multiscale enhancement algorithm, which decomposes a radiograph into separate
channels representing structures of different sizes (“scales”). At each scale, the contrast of the
structures may be enhanced individually, which allows to achieve a good representation of all
clinically relevant image details in the resulting image. Compared to its predecessor, the redesigned version (UNIQUE 2) features several technical improvements, such as an improved global contrast enhancement and a more sophisticated noise suppression.
Prohibited Use
The display of the Eleva Tube Head and the monitor of the Eleva Workspot are not suitable for
routine diagnostic image reading.
The cassette reader is not allowed to work with cassettes and imaging plates other than specified.

Electromagnetic CompatibilitySafety and Requirements
Connections to sensitive parts are identified by the ESD warning symbol as shown.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can amount to a significant voltage, which may cause damage to
Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) or other systems.
ESD damage is cumulative and may not be apparent at first, as indicated by a hard failure, but
can cause degraded performance. Therefore, always use proper ESD handling procedures. ESD
can result from low humidity condition or use of electrical equipment on carpeting, linens, and
clothing.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
WARNING
Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be in‐
stalled and put into service according to the EMC information provided in the accompanying
documents.
In accordance with its purpose, this device fulfills the regulations of the EMC legislation
which govern the permissible emission of electromagnetic fields from electrically operated
equipment and the immunity to be fulfilled.
Despite this, it cannot be excluded with absolute certainty that radio signals from high‐fre‐
quency transmitters, such as mobile phones or similar mobile radio equipment, which also
satisfy the EMC regulations will not influence the proper functioning of electro medical
equipment when these are operated in direct proximity with relatively high transmitting
power. The operation of such radio equipment should, therefore, be avoided in close prox‐
imity to electronically regulated or controlled medical products in the face of possible func‐
tional interference.
Philips4512 987 46122 AA/712 * MAR 2020
DigitalDiagnost C90 Version 1.129
Explanation
Electronic equipment which conforms to the EMC regulations is configured in such a way, that
under normal circumstances, malfunctions caused by electromagnetic interference can be excluded. However, with regard to radio signals from high-frequency transmitters with a relatively
high transmitting power, which are operated in close proximity to electronic devices, the occurrence of possible electromagnetic incompatibility with the electronic device cannot be completely ruled out.
With unusual configurations, this could result in unintentional operating sequences being initiated in the device and, under certain circumstances, undesirable risks for patient or operator.
Therefore, the activation of any transmission from mobile radio equipment – this also applies to
equipment in standby mode – is to be avoided.
Mobile phones must be switched off in marked problem areas.

WiFi Connectivity of the Wireless Portable Detector
The detector uses standard WiFi technology for data transfer to the workstation. This technology is proven to be safe in combination with current pacemakers. However it can not be completely excluded that an older pacemaker or other EMC sensitive life-supporting device be influenced by the WiFi emission if operated in close proximity to the detector.
WARNING
WiFi technology is used by the wireless portable detector for data transfer. Due to the WiFi
emission, special care must be taken when using the wireless portable detector close to life‐
supporting devices. In this respect observe the following rules:
• The life‐supporting device should be certified according to IEC 60601‐1‐2. This standard
defines the minimum distance for a given maximum emission power, corresponding to a
maximum instantaneous electrical field of 10 V/m. Customers have to take into account,
on their own responsibility, that older life‐supporting devices do not necessarily satisfy
the IEC 60601‐1‐2 criteria.
• Make sure that you keep the minimum distance to a life‐supporting device. Take into
consideration that a strict compliance with IEC 60601‐1‐2 requires the following distances
at the given emission power:

WARNING
Special consideration for pacemakers
WiFi technology is proven to be safe in combination with current pacemakers. However it
cannot be completely excluded that an older pacemaker or other EMC sensitive life‐support‐
ing device be influenced by the WiFi emission if operated in close proximity to the wireless
detector.
• If you suspect that there will be an EMC interaction between the detector and a pace‐
maker or life‐supporting device, switch off the WiFi connection and use the cable connec‐
tion.
WARNING
The SkyPlate E detector uses NFC technology to attach the grid. Due to the magnetic field
emission from the NFC, special care must be taken when using the SkyPlate E detector close
to life supporting devices.
Keep a minimum distance of 1.6 cm between the NFC module (in detector and grid) and the
patient wearing a pacemaker.
If you observe any unusual symptoms on the pacemaker, remove all devices with an NFC
module from the direct patient surrounding.

Safety and RequirementsRadiation Protection
Radiation Protection
CAUTION
This product may contain radioactive material or generate ionizing radiation.
Ensure that before each X‐ray exposure all the necessary radiation protection measures
have been taken.
When using X‐radiation the personnel in the examination room must comply with the valid
radiation protection regulations. In this respect please observe the following rules:
• Distance is the most effective radiation protection. Keep as large a distance as possible
from the object exposed and the X‐ray tube assembly.
• Avoid working in the direct beam of radiation. If this is inevitable, protect yourself. Wear
radiation protection gloves.
• Select as short an examination time as possible. This will reduce total radiation dose con‐
siderably.
• Move the region of interest as close as possible to the image intensifier/film cassette/
detector. Apart from reducing exposure to radiation you will also optimize the exposure.
• Always be aware that any material brought into the path of radiation between the pa‐
tient and the image receptor will have a negative influence on the image quality as well
as on the patient dose.
• Safety circuits which may prevent X‐radiation from being switched on under certain con‐
ditions may be neither removed nor modified.
CAUTION
To protect the patient against radiation always use radiation protection accessories in addi‐
tion to devices which are fitted to the X‐ray equipment.
CAUTION
Wear protective clothing. Radiation protection aprons with a lead equivalent of 0.35 mm at‐
tenuate X‐radiation at 50 kV by 99.84%, and at 100 kV by 91.2%.
CAUTION
Always use the smallest X‐ray field collimation. Scattered radiation is largely dependent on
the volume of the object being exposed.
32DigitalDiagnost C90 Version 1.1
Philips4512 987 46122 AA/712 * MAR 2020
Page 37
Radiation Dose ManagementSafety and Requirements
CAUTION
Always make sure that the X‐ray field collimation completely covers the selected measuring
field.
CAUTION
Always select a focal spot to skin distance as large as possible to keep the absorbed dose for
the patient as low as reasonably possible.
CAUTION
To avoid unwanted or excessive radiation, always be sure that the path of radiation corre‐
sponds with the selected registration device. Example: If the table detector is selected at the
Eleva Workspot, do not expose on the detector of the wall stand.
Philips4512 987 46122 AA/712 * MAR 2020
CAUTION
There should be no persons other than the patient in the examination room during X‐ray
exposure. If circumstances require another person to enter the room while X‐ray exposures
are planned or possible, that person should wear a lead apron in accordance with accepted
radiation protection practices.
NOTICE
Unwanted or excessive radiation
Always select the correct measuring field for the examination. Make sure that the measuring
field always corresponds with the region of interest and is fully covered by the body. Otherwise you may cause unwanted or excessive radiation.
Radiation Dose Management
This system supports different means of quantitative and qualitative dose management:
Clinical Protocols
A set of default clinical protocols is available on the system. These examination protocols are
recommendations for adequate operation of the equipment according to its intended use. The
protocols contain parameters for image generation, image processing, and display. They provide reasonable image quality at sufficiently low dose levels according to the ALARA principle
(As Low As Reasonably Achievable). The EPX validation and administration tool allows the advanced user to manage the examination protocols. Default protocols can be complemented
with more specific ones. Protocol parameters can be displayed, exported, and printed.
DigitalDiagnost C90 Version 1.133
Page 38
Safety and RequirementsRadiation Dose Management
Dose Area Product Indication
With the dose area product (DAP), the radiation dose applied to the patient is reported. The
DAP for each image is displayed under each image. The cumulated DAP is displayed in the generator area. The value is the product of the average dose and the irradiated area. Therefore, it
is independent of the distance from the X-ray source.
Detector Dose Indication
The radiation dose at the image receptor is indicated by the exposure index EI_s. Deviations
from the target dose at the image receptor are visualized in the user interface.
Quality Assurance Tool
The Quality Assurance Tool (QA Tool) provides several, configurable overviews of the examination parameters and the radiation dose when using digital detectors. It can be used for a statistical analysis of radiographic exposures in regard to quality sensitive parameters. It provides
analyses for internal quality control, for workflow improvements, and for reports to public authorities. The QA tool offers predefined analyses on important QA parameters, for example, on
the dose information provided by the EI_s
values and on the DAP level. You may select the parameters to be analyzed. The QA tool is optional for the Eleva Workspot. The corresponding
license must be installed.
Quantitative Dose Estimation
The expected radiation quantity for each examination can be calculated from the X-ray parameter presets contained in the EPX database, but the exact amount of radiation dose applied to
patients depends on the specific exposure settings. It can be simulated by exposing water
equivalent phantoms according to IEC 60601-2-54. Diagnostic reference levels can be used for
orientation and comparison purposes, see ICRP, 2017. Diagnostic reference levels in medical
imaging. ICRP Publication 135. Ann. ICRP 46(1).
Examples of diagnostic reference levels publish-
ed by national and international organizations are:
• IPEM/NRPB/RCR/CoR/BIR Diagnostic Reference Levels Working Party (United Kingdom)
• ACR Practice Guideline for Diagnostic Reference Levels in Medical X-Ray Imaging (USA)
• Code 35: Safety Procedures for the Installation, Use and Control of X-ray Equipment in Large
Medical Radiological Facilities - Section A 3.5 Diagnostic Reference Levels (Canada)
• Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz: Bekanntmachung der aktualisierten diagnostischen Referenzwerte für diagnostische und interventionelle Röntgenuntersuchungen (Germany)
In general, the typical patient dose remains considerably below those diagnostic reference levels. The following table states mean values of dose area product and the associated range of
variation caused by differences in, for example, patient type or by specific preferences regarding exposure settings and protocols. These values are based on a sample of 93122 exposures
taken in 11 European and US hospitals (compare Radiation Protection Dosimetry, Vol. 114, Nos
1-3, pp. 131-134, 2005).

Radiation Dose and System Imaging Performance
The European Commission Radiation Protection N° 162 report “Criteria for Acceptability of
Medical Radiological Equipment” (RP162) defines a set of quality criteria and suspension levels
for diagnostic radiology equipment.
The document “Leitlinien der Bundesärztekammer zur Qualitätssicherung in der Röntgendiagnostik” (“X-ray diagnostics guidelines for quality assurance by the federal medical association,
Germany”) relates criteria for acceptability according to RP162 to the intended use as follows:
This equipment complies with the criteria shown in the table as well as with further, systemrelated metrics of imaging performance defined in RP162 and the referenced documents.
Typical Patient Entrance Dose Values for Pediatric Extremities
The following table shows typical values of the patient entrance dose for exposures on the wall
stand with an SID of 100 cm (39.4 in) and no added filter. The dose values are calculated from
the typical yield of the X-ray tube.

Laser Light SourceSafety and Requirements
Laser Light Source
WARNING
Laser radiation
Some components of the system may contain laser light sources of Class 2 or lower. Make
sure that no one looks directly into the light beam.
With Class 2 lasers, the eye is protected by the eyelid closure reflex in the event of acciden‐
tal, brief glances into the laser beam. Therefore, Class 2 lasers may be used without taking
any further precautions, if one of the following applies:
• It is not necessary to look into the beam intentionally for longer than 0.25 s.
• It is not necessary to look repeatedly into the laser beam or into the directly reflected
beam.
For continuous‐duty Class 2 lasers, the maximum limit for accessible radiation is 1 mW.
In the Event of Power Outage
In the event of a power outage exposures are not possible.
Please note:
• Patients may be positioned only when the system is ready for operation again.
• Patients lying on the table top should remain there until the system is ready for operation
again.
If that is impossible, do the following:
– Move the table top on one side to the stops.
– Hold the table top steady when the patient is leaving it.
(Without power the table top is freely movable. Therefore, in small rooms the table top
could block, for example, a passage for a trolley or the door of a cubicle).

System DescriptionSystem Components
Bypass Mode
When the UPS is in bypass mode, the mains power bypasses the inverter. This means that the
UPS provides the energy directly to the connected load.
The UPS enters the bypass mode automatically when, for example, the inverter is faulty or the
UPS overheats. Consequently, the UPS still supplies the connected load with power directly
from the mains.
The bypass mode is indicated through an audible alarm and the yellow bypass indicator on the
operation and display panel.
ECO Mode
The ECO mode can be applied to increase efficiency and to reduce, for example, costs for electricity. In this mode, the connected equipment is powered through the bypass path. The ECO
mode is switched off by default.
Performing a Manual Battery Test
► Select Main menu/Control/Batt Test/Start.
► Confirm with Yes.
⇨ A user guidance indicates that the UPS performs the battery test.
or
⇨ The UPS displays the test result as either Passed
Failed.
► If the test result shows Failed, make sure that the UPS is supplied with power from the
mains and wait for the UPS to recharge the batteries (24 hours).
► Retest the batteries after 24 hours of charging.
► If the test result still shows Failed, contact customer service.

Emergency Access to the System
NOTICE
Unless the disk encryption has been specifically disabled, the disk encryption is enabled by default. On systems where the disk encryption is active, the emergency access is available only
when the encrypted disk is unlocked.
You need to unlock the disk at each system startup (decryption login). The disk remains unlocked until shutdown and reboot.
Without entering the decryption password, not only access to the encrypted data is restricted,
but the system cannot be used in its entirety.
If the system needs to operate in an emergency mode without decryption password, disk encryption needs to be disabled, even though not recommended for security and privacy reasons. When you have decided to disable disk encryption, this can be only reverted through a
new system installation by the customer service.
Philips4512 987 46122 AA/712 * MAR 2020
NOTICE
Define an emergency access process in case the emergency's login is not available, because
the encrypted disk is locked at system startup and an initial authentication is required to get
the system operable.
The emergency mode permits access to the system without a user name and password. When
you use the emergency access to the system, the system enforces restrictions to prevent access
to all other (non-emergency) patient data.
