16.7 X-Ray Lung Examination
The backrest of the bed consists of HPL and is x-ray translucent. The
bed is equipped with an x-ray cassette hol- der with 2 U-proles under
the backrest. This design allows taking x-ray images of the patient’s
lungs without moving the patient manually.

► Make sure that patient is in centre of bed.
► Make sure that backrest is in lowest position and siderails are folded up.
► Pull out x-ray cassette holder.
► Insert x-ray cassette (format 43×35 cm (16.93 in. x 13.78 in.)).
► Push back x-ray cassette holder with x-ray cassette so that the cassette centre indicator is exactly under the edge of the
mattress platform.
