What is it indicated for?
The SOMATOM P30 systems are intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by
computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from either the same axial plane taken at
different angles or spiral planes* taken at different angles.
(*spiral planes: the axial planes resulted from the continuous rotation of detectors and x-ray tube,
and the simultaneous translation of the patient.)
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
