- A low-level radiation field exists near the device when the x-rays are ON. Although working in a radiation field of this magnitude (even for prolonged periods) will not significantly increase your risk to a detrimental health effect, it is advisable, whenever possible, to minimize your radiation exposure. For this reason you should limit time spent in close proximity to the scanner when x-rays are ON (note area marked on floor)
