2.3.5. System Stability
The Exablate system complies with Regulation (EU) 2017/745, General Safety and Performance
Requirements, and 2006/42/EC Machinery standard regarding stability requirements.
The system table and cradle move in/out of the MR bore on wheels equipped with stoppers. The table can
be manually raised or lowered as required by pressing the foot pedal, to a maximum range of 225mm. To
ensure the patient’s secure and safe positioning on the table, proceed as follows:
1. Always ensure that the patient, while on the table, is safely harnessed with the cross-tying safety belts.
2. Only remove the patient from the table when the table is in final lowering position and its wheels are
at STOP position.
3. Do not try to move the cradle when the table is not docked to the MRI, as the cradle is locked in place
(on table) when the table not docked to MRI.
The system operator is obliged to meet instructions and take the stability safety precautions in a timely and
complying manner as to keep moving parts from collisions, falls, slipping and tripping.
