D Four angles are available:
+15 degrees and -15 degrees, for making exposures in stereotaxy,
+27 degrees and -27 degrees, to position the puncturing needle or biopsy gun.
Note: When the X-ray Tube Arm is tilted through +15 degrees or -15 degrees,
exposure is authorized only if Stereotix 2 or Senovision Stereotactic positioner
is used. In all other cases, exposure is inhibited, and a warning message is
displayed on the console.
A mechanical structure maintains the Tube-Support Arm balanced and steady.
