We get several questions from clinics on how they can send their studies to be read by radiologists outside of AIS. This is a very simple thing to do and is done through SmartPACS. Please click the link below for information on how to set this up and train clinics to send to companies like PetRAYs, VDIC, etc.Third-Party Telemedicine Setup
In an effort to make things easier for our customers to call in to tech support, please ensure that you are placing the the Varex ID Sticker on the wall mount, computer, or x-ray machine so that is visible to the clinic.
You will notice on the FID that a new box has appeared asking where the sticker was placed. If it is not on the computer, check other and explain where it is.
If you are onsite and have a reject button, please follow the steps below.
- DO NOT USE the Bluetooth keyboard/mouse that comes in the SmartDR box.
- A separate keyboard and mouse has been sent. This has an RF dongle.
- Contact Kyle 760-448-4853 or one of our other installation staff if you do not have this.

The Varian V2 panels that arriving with the all-in-one computers are experiencing some technique issues. The new panel (V2) has a software bug in it. This is being corrected.
We have been finding that the included Technique Chart may need to be adjusted by one MA station down.
If you experience any of the following, please contact Tech Support right away so that we can document then issues
- burning through images
- auto crop failure
- grainy and burning through images at the same time
Thank your patience while we work through this.
