3.1.1 Patient Face Shield Installation and Removal
The Face Shield
(Figure 6-19)
prevents the
patient’s head and
face from entering
the x-ray field
during the
examination. The
Face Shield mounts
to the tubehead and
surrounds the x-ray
tube port. To install
the Face Shield
follow these steps:
1. Position the
Face Shield so
that its open
side faces the
C-arm and the
smaller end
faces the tubehead.
2. Slide the open end of the face shield into the slots on the tubehead mount.
3. Push the Face shield completely on the mount.
