Allpro Imaging Scan X Pro
Allpro Imaging · Model Scan X Pro
Integrated display and integrated mini-PC. Internal storage and direct data transfer. Battery operation. Touch-Display. Integrated mini-PC. Ultra-portable. Species and body region can be easily selected via clear pictograms to assign it to the job. After the imaging plate has been completely scanned, a preview is shown on the integrated display. Easily enlarge the picture to see more detail. For further processing on the PC, the image can be first stored on a SD memory card with up to 32 GB.
Key tips
- ·Never bypass a radiation interlock to "just get the image" - this is one of the few true zero-tolerance rules in BMET work.
- ·Trend image-quality phantom results over time - drift shows up before an outright failure does.
- ·Portable/mobile units take real physical abuse from transport - check wheel locks and cable strain reliefs more often than fixed units.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Poor image quality / artefacts
HighSymptoms: Banding, streaks, ghost images, non-uniform density, dust artefacts.
Root cause: Dirty light guide / scanning optics, a worn erase-lamp array, imaging-plate wear, or contaminated transport rollers.
Plate / cassette transport jam or mis-feed
MediumSymptoms: Plate jams in the reader, transport error, plate not returned.
Root cause: Worn or contaminated transport rollers / belts, or a sensor fault.
Incomplete erase / residual latent image
MediumSymptoms: A faint previous image appears on the next exposure.
Root cause: Erase-lamp array degradation or a driver fault.
Laser / PMT scanning fault
MediumSymptoms: No or very noisy image, scan-error message.
Root cause: Scanning laser or the photomultiplier / detection chain.
Workstation / DICOM fault
LowSymptoms: Images will not display, annotate or send to PACS.
Root cause: Workstation PC or the DICOM configuration.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Daily QC per modality: image-quality phantom test
- ·Tube and detector inspection
- ·Annual state-required radiation safety survey
- ·Vendor-scheduled preventive maintenance
Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Poor image quality or artefacts
- Run the reader's cleaning / calibration procedure.
- Clean the light guide, scanning optics and transport rollers.
- Erase and re-image a plate to check for a residual latent image.
- Rotate in a fresh imaging plate to rule out plate wear.
- Escalate a scanning-laser / PMT fault to the OEM.
Symptom: Plate transport jam
- Clear the jammed plate / cassette per the manual.
- Inspect and clean or replace the transport rollers and belts.
- Check the transport sensors.
- Cycle several cassettes.
- Confirm reliable feed and return.
