3D Navigation with the SIREMOBIL Iso-C 3D 0

The 3D navigation kit is a universal HW and SW interface which controls navigation sys-
tems provided by different navigation systems vendors.
The navigation system itself is not provided by Siemens, but always by a navigation sys-
tems vendor.

Procedure in collaboration with the navigation systems vendor BrainLAB 0

No time overlap when installing the navigation system

In coordination with the navigation systems vendor BrainLAB, the installation of the
Navilink interface and the startup of the navigation system are performed sequentially,
with no time overlap of technician service calls.
The navigation systems vendor informs the customer that the SIREMOBIL Iso-C must be
prepared for navigation. The customer informs the SIEMENS technician of this and
schedules the service call to have the Navilink interface installed.
After the SIEMENS technician has performed the necessary tasks, he or she notifies the
navigation systems vendor. The navigation systems vendor schedules its own service
call.
The presence of a SIEMENS technician is no longer necessary.
This will prevent waiting periods for the SIEMENS technician as well as for the navigation
systems vendor's technician.
For this reason, the procedure described below should be followed.

Tasks performed by Siemens

After the customer has placed the order, the following tasks are performed by SIEMENS:
• Schedule the service call with the customer.
• Check all required system updates and perform any that are still necessary.
• Install the new grid holder on the image intensifier.
• Check latest SW version, and install if necessary.
• Check Navilink license, and install if necessary.
• Configure a default network node.
• Calibrate 3D reconstruction, but without the marker ring installed.
• Fill out and send the fax form to BrainLAB. Enter on the form all data required by Brain-
LAB.

NOTE When BrainLAB receives the fax form, they contact the customer,
schedule the service call for installation and startup of the naviga-
tion system, and perform all required steps. A SIEMENS technician
is no longer required to be on site for this phase.

10 General information

Tasks performed by BrainLAB

The following tasks are performed by a BrainLAB technician trained for the Siremobil,
without the presence of a SIEMENS technician:
• Install and start up the navigation system
• If necessary, adapt the DICOM network node to the Siremobil Iso-C
• Check network communication between 3D PC and navigation system
• Calibrate 3D reconstruction on Siremobil Iso-C with marker ring installed
• Check 3D high resolution on Siremobil Iso-C
• Create a backup CD
• Turnover to customer, customer briefing

Procedure in collaboration with all other navigation systems vendors 0

There is a time overlap involving the Siemens technician and the navigation sys-
tems vendor's technician
In such cases, the Navilink interface installation can be only partially performed by a SIE-
MENS technician. Some tasks must be carried out in close cooperation with a technician
from the navigation systems vendor.
This means that the SIEMENS technician requires two service calls to integrate the navi-
gation system.

Tasks performed by Siemens

• Schedule the service call with the customer.

Siemens technician (1st service call)

The following tasks must be performed by the SIEMENS technician at the 1st service call:
• Check all required system updates and perform any that are still necessary
• Install the new grid holder on the image intensifier
• Check latest SW version, and install if necessary
• Check Navilink license, and install if necessary
• Configure a default DICOM network node for the navigation system
• Calibrate 3D reconstruction. Only the calibration without the navigation system can be
performed, since the navigation system's marker ring is not present.
• Check image quality and 3D high resolution

General information 11

Joint tasks, performed by Siemens and the navigation systems vendor

The following tasks are performed jointly, with a technician from the navigation systems
vendor:
• If necessary, adapt the DICOM network node configuration to the navigation system
• Check network communication between 3D PC and navigation system
• Calibrate 3D reconstruction (with marker ring)

After installation is completed, stow the navigation system test body (included in the
Navilink kit) in the monitor trolley.
Inform the customer about the storage location and use of the test body.
The navigation systems vendor turns the navigation system over to the customer and per-
forms the necessary customer briefing.
The overlapping work time of the two technicians is approx. 5 hours.

• Move the C-arm into the neutral horizontal position.

- The image intensifier is on the main unit.
• Take the required stand out of the "Calibration Phantom Service Case".
• Attach the resolution test (lead strip test pattern) to the stand so that it is horizontal to
the floor.
• Position the resolution test in the isocenter of the C-arm. Navigate from the side and
longitudinal to the C-arm.
• Use the laser light localizer (if one is installed) to aid in locating the isocenter.

Measurement run 0

• Start 3D measurement with left footswitch.

• Keep foot on footswitch for approx. 2 minutes.
• While doing so, check the left (SIREMOBIL) monitor to see whether the lead strip test
pattern is located in the isocenter; visible modulations (~ at a projection of 50) of up to
1.8 LP/mm should appear.
- The lead strip test pattern must be positioned in the center of the monitor image.

NOTE If there is a significant deviation from the isocentric object posi-

tion, the measurement will be interrupted and the lead strip test
pattern must be repositioned.

During the scan, the following window is displayed:

Checking 3D high resolution 0

Target:
Determine the optimal slice plane for representing the lead strip test in the syngo window.

In upper left-hand window:

• Using the vertical bar, select the plane perpendicular to the lead strip test pattern.
• Next, select a slice plane in the center of the lead strip test pattern.

Fig. 34: Slice_plane_setting_in_upper_left_window

• If the lead strip test pattern is slanted in relation to the floor plane, correct this by rotat-
ing the slice plane in Free Mode.

mouse button to return to a previous window.

NOTE If 3D high resolution is not achieved, the calibration must be per-

formed again.
