Known contraindication(s)
Contraindications of the X-ray system continue to apply (see X-ray system documentation).
Additionally, the Optica 20 series introduces matter in the primary X-ray beam, which primarily results
in additional X-ray scatter. Additional X-ray scatter causes a radiation risk. The Optica 20 series is
mitigating the radiation risk by shielding the additional scatter and limiting the size of the primary X-ray
beam and also confining the scatter generated from the X-ray tube (housing).
