Ensure exposure parameters are properly adjusted within safety limits. CAUTION Incorrect Collimator adjustment may cause unnecessary patient X-ray exposure. See the DRX-Revolution Mobile X-ray System Hardware Guide for instructions for adjusting the size of the exposure area. CAUTION Incorrect X-ray Tube and Collimator position could cause the X-ray field to be misaligned with the receptor, resulting in unacceptable images.
Safety and Regulatory Information CAUTION Materials between the Tube and the patient may adversely affect the resulting image. Maximum Permissible Various studies on the effects of X-radiation have provided a foundation for Dose (MPD) establishing the maximum permissible dose of X-radiation to which an occupational worker may be exposed.
Safety and Regulatory Information Radiation Protection Because exposure to high levels of X-radiation may pose a health risk, operators must ensure that they use all available methods to reduce their radiation dose to a level that is As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA). This includes protection from the primary beam as well as scattered radiation.
