IMPORTANT! . . . X-RAY PROTECTION
X-ray equipment may cause injury if used improperly. The instructions
contained in this manual must be read and followed when installing, servicing,
or operating the Orthoralix® 9200 DDE. The Orthoralix 9200 DDE provides a
high degree of protection from unnecessary X-radiation. However, no practical
design can provide complete protection, nor prevent operators from exposing
themselves or others to unnecessary radiation. It is important that you become
fully acquainted with applicable government radiation protection regulations.
Many provisions of these regulations are based on the recommendations of
the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements.
Recommendations for dental X-ray protection are published in NCRP Report
Number 35 available from NCRP Publications, 7910 Woodmont Ave., Suite
800, Bethesda, MD 20814, or at www.ncrp.com. Personal radiation monitoring
and protective devices are available. You are urged to use them to protect
against unnecessary X-radiation exposure.
