Intended Use
The DR 100s system is a mobile X-ray imaging system used in hospitals, clinics
and medical practices by physicists, radiographers and radiologists to make,
process and view static X-ray radiographic images of the skeleton (including
skull, spinal column and extremities), chest, abdomen and other body parts
on adult, pediatric or neonatal patients.
Applications can be performed with the patient in the sitting, standing or
lying position.
This device is not intended for mammography applications.
