Automated medical imaging system fault detection

摘要

A system automatically detects and reports a hardware and/or software error in an X-ray system. A system automatically detects and identifies failed components of a distributed X-ray imaging system. Multiple different subsystems of an X-ray imaging system individually include, an executable procedure for detecting a failed component in a respective subsystem and a communication interface for initiating generation and communication of a message identifying the failed component and identifying the respective subsystem including the failed component. A repository stores data identifying failed components within the multiple different subsystems in response to the communicated message. An error processor accesses the repository of data and provides composite information enabling a user to identify failed components within an X-ray imaging system.
