The following tables show the Quantitative Information associated
to this equipment according to the StandardIEC 60601- -1- -3:2008
and IEC 60601- -1- -3:2008+AMD1:2013. These tables illustrate
loading factors for image performance and supply Dose indication
examples. Therefore, they are an example of the adjustment of
Loading Factors, Focal Spot Selection, SID and Collimator
opening, which affect to the radiation quality or to the radiation
dose rate applied in normal use.
