Patent number: 7352886Abstract: A method and system for automated detection and handling of film feeding failures in a high-volume CAD environment. The method provides for batch processing a set of films including multiple film cases including the steps of providing a number count of the number of films corresponding to each film case and identifying a difference between the processed number and the number count as a process error for the film case. The method also provides for batch processing a set of films including multiple film cases including the steps of providing at least one error check on the status of processing the films in the set of films and completing processing of all film cases in the set of films after a process error is identified in one film case.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2002Date of Patent: April 1, 2008Assignee: iCad, Inc.Inventors: Craig Kennedy, Thomas Fister, Michael Bettencourt, Jason Sattler
