1.0 Getting Started
1.1 Indication for Use
The KaVo NOMAD PRO 2 Handheld X-ray System is indicated for use only by a trained
and qualified dentist or dental technician for both adult and pediatric subjects as an
extraoral diagnostic dental X-ray source to produce X-ray images using intraoral image
receptors.
1.2 Warnings and Precautions
The device is designed for use with patients of any overall health status, as solely
determined by the practitioner, with the following considerations for specific circumstances:
• Pregnant women. The medical practitioner must weigh the benefits conferred by use of
the device against the potential hazard to the pregnant woman and fetus resulting from
radiation exposure. If use of the device is considered justified, the practitioner must take
the appropriate precautions, such as use of radiation safety garments, to limit radiation
exposure beyond the maxillofacial complex.
• Pediatric. The medical practitioner must weigh the benefits conferred by use of the
device against the potential hazard to the child resulting from radiation exposure,
considering the maturity of the child’s physical development. If use of the device is
considered justified, the practitioner must take the appropriate precautions, such as use of
radiation safety garments, to limit radiation exposure beyond the maxillofacial complex.
• Patients with medical conditions causing involuntary movements. For patients who
experience seizures or who have been diagnosed with conditions such as Parkinson’s
Disease which can cause difficulty in controlling physical movements, the medical
practitioner must weigh the benefits conferred by use of the device against the potential
hazard to the patient resulting from additional radiation exposure due to a re-scan in the
event that an involuntary movement renders an image unusable for diagnostic purposes.
