Avoid wrinkling the pad and other materials lying on it (towels,
underlays) to keep image artefacts to a minimum.
X-ray area of the
operating table top
[A]
X-ray area, foot end
[B]
X-ray area, head end
[C] Column area (not radiolucent)
The X-ray region [A]/[B] on the operating table top is the region
between the struts of the end of the section segment and the
cladding of the operating table column. The X-ray area is
dependent on the longitudinal travel of the operating table top. The
column area [C] is not radiolucent.
Rails for X-ray
cassette
There are rails on the inner sides of the back section struts to hold
an X-ray cassette (size: 14 inch (35.56 cm)). The X-ray cassette can
be slid under the seat/back section. Slide the X-ray cassette along
the supports mounted on the spars. The cassette is not fixed and can
slide if the operating table top is not horizontal or is moved. Please
note this in order to avoid damage to the X-ray cassette.
