TAKING AN EXPOSURE

WARNING: Ionizing radiation can lead to radiation
injuries if handled incorrectly. When radiation is
applied, the required protective measures must be
complied with.

These procedures are identical for all operating modes. After verifying or adjusting
techniques and exposure factors, ensure that all other X-ray exposure precautions
are met.
