| Ability to upgrade or enhance technological capability | Use of advanced technology and a modular design allows for hardware and/or software updates in the field |
| Fault Tolerant Design | The ability to operate an EDS with a single source offline will result in significant improvement to the EDS availability and reliability metrics. It also allows the flexibility to schedule X-ray service operations during EDS offline intervals, when no impact to scanning operations will occur. Results of this initial Reduced View Study using the legacy detection algorithm demonstrate consistent bulk item detections performance within (-2.8%, -1.6%) and consistent bulk item false alarm performance within (-0.6%, +0.2%). Preliminary results from an initial prototype detection algorithm using segmented items from the AM image also show consistent performance within (-3.0%, +0.6%) for detection and within (-0.3%, +0.5%) for false alarm rate. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that the SureScan x1000 scanner and the new improved reconstruction and image processing algorithms have the ability to achieve equivalent detection and false alarm performance with a single offline X-ray source. |
