Overview

The Siemens Artis zee system training is primarily hands-on and focuses on service results. We apply the skills learned in previous Siemens courses to the unique requirements of Siemens Artis zee systems. Labs and supporting classroom discussion explore the specific functions and features of Siemens Artis zee based on Digital Flat Panel and Digital Acquisition features. Emphasis is placed on operation, configuration, calibration, troubleshooting, and repair using system documentation, functional block diagrams, and diagnostic software to access system specific calibration and diagnostics applications. The sub-systems covered in the course are the Polydoros A100 generator, Artis zee stand, patient table with peri & tilting, IAS/IVS digital, flat-panel detector technology & Siemomed flat-screen monitors. Products in scope: Siemens Axiom ArtisFA, FC, MP, BA, TA, DFC, DTA DFA, DBC, BC, DTC, TC, DBA, DMP, All versions of Zee, All Zeego, All Q-zen

• The following applies to cancellations of an onsite course/training scheduled at your facility (i.e., a GE HealthCare instructor is scheduled to travel to your site) or a remote virtual course/training offering (where specific course/training dates have been agreed upon and scheduled by you and GE HealthCare): there is a cancellation fee of 100% of the course/training tuition, plus you agree to reimburse GE HealthCare for GE HealthCare’s incurred travel charges and expenses.
