2.4 Patient's and user's safety guidelines<br />
Risks for a patient and for involved people are avoided working in a proper way and correctly positioning the<br />
patient. Special care should be taken in case of disabled or injured people.<br />
2.4.1 Patient positioning<br />
Be sure that a patient is properly placed inside the scan area, with his/her head on the head support, and<br />
that no part of his/her body may impact the device or be pressed during the positioning and the examination.<br />
Be sure that a patient's garments and hair may not get caught. Similarly regarding catheters and ECG<br />
cables.<br />
Do not perform any movement until the patient's safety is assured and there are no obstacles to the device<br />
movement.<br />
Refer to Par. 6.1.2 - "Positioning the patient and starting a new scan" for a proper positioning for a patient.<br />
