What Is the Orthoscan Flat Detector 15×15 cm (235-0009)?
Product: Orthoscan Flat Panel Detector — 15 cm × 15 cm
Part Number: 235-0009
Also Known As: Flat Panel Detector, FPD, Digital Detector, Imaging Detector
The Orthoscan Flat Detector 15×15 cm (235-0009) is the square-format Thales amorphous silicon flat panel detector used exclusively in the Orthoscan FD Pulse Mini C-Arm. The larger 15×15 cm field of view — compared to the 15×12 cm detector used on the FD, FD-OR, and MDI — is one of the defining features of the FD Pulse platform, providing a wider imaging area for extremity fluoroscopy. A failing or degraded flat detector typically presents as a partial or completely blank image, horizontal or vertical banding artifacts, image dropout at the edges or center, significantly degraded image quality that cannot be corrected by gain calibration, or detector-related error codes at system startup.

What is the difference between the 15×15 and 15×12 Orthoscan flat detectors?+
The 15×15 cm detector (
235-0009) is used exclusively on the Orthoscan FD Pulse and provides a larger, square field of view. The 15×12 cm detector (
235-0005) is used on the FD, FD-OR, and MDI. The two detectors are not interchangeable. Always confirm your system model before ordering.
What are the symptoms of a failing flat detector?+
Common failure symptoms include a partially or completely blank image, horizontal or vertical banding artifacts, image dropout at the edges or center of the field of view, significantly degraded image quality that cannot be corrected through gain calibration, or detector-related error codes at startup. These symptoms warrant a detector evaluation before attempting other repairs.
Does gain calibration need to be performed after replacing the flat detector?+
Yes. After any flat detector replacement, a gain calibration (offset and gain map acquisition) must be performed to optimize image quality for the new detector. This requires the system software to be run through its calibration routine. Our engineers perform this as part of every flat detector installation.
What does sold on exchange mean?+
Exchange means you return your defective core unit when you receive the replacement. This helps keep costs down and ensures defective units are properly refurbished. Our team will provide return instructions with your order.
How quickly can I get this part shipped?+
Same-day shipping is available on in-stock parts when ordered before 5PM EST. Call (800) 643-2998 to confirm availability and discuss expedited shipping options.
