Gantry Scan Window

CAUTION Potential for Equipment Damage. The cones of the front and rear gantry covers must be
aligned within specification to ensure proper scan window fit. If the scan window is not fit
properly, fluids can get into the collimator and detector, causing image artifacts or
permanent damage.
This procedure assumes the front and rear covers are installed.
1.) Grab the window at the top and pull firmly downward.
2.) Pull the scan window down from the top center and then grasp both sides of the scan window,
move them together and lightly pull upward, until you can free the window from between the
front and rear covers. See Figure A-1.
Note: You may need to use the tip of a flat blade screwdriver to pull down the top edge of the scan window
away from the cover in order to grab it with your fingers. Be careful not to push the screwdriver in
too far as the gasket can be damaged.
