Two issues were identified with the stationary x-ray system. 1. Some position illustrations in the patient exam interface show the incorrect anatomical position for the standard of care. When the image is acquired with the wrong reference position, clinical diagnostic requirements cannot be met.T2.  Where image stitching is used, the left and right tag information may be lost.
