    During 3D acquisitions, lighter and darker patient images may be captured, which may result in less accurate 3D reconstruction. The variation of brightness is a result of a constant unregulated medium dose and the angular change of patient diameter caused by rotational acquisition. This may result in unintentional low-dose radiation exposure to a patient.

    If, during the procedure, X-ray has been released and a reference image has been stored, the following issue may occur: If "Adjust C-arm to Ref" is activated when the C-Arm is positioned outside of the working range the C-Arm will reach the target position with an inaccuracy of 5-10 mm. As a result, the message Endposition reached will be displayed .Leading to unintended direction of the movement causing crushing of a patient, staff member, operator, or equipmen Live images may not match the previously stored reference images. Overlay images may be shown inaccurate on anatomy (e.g., DSA Roadmap workflow does not match real anatomy). This may cause e.g., a vessel perforation in DSA roadmap.
