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 operating the ORTHORALIX® 8500. GENDEX dealers will assist you in placing the ORTHORALIX 8500 in operation.
The ORTHORALIX 8500 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.
