Artifacting Disclaimer: In some instances, the optional coverings and ultrafoam blocks may present artifacting issues when used for imaging applications. It may be possible to work around artifact issues depending on technique, as they usually appear along the edges of the positioning block. If the block is placed so that its edges are not in the field of view, artifacting might be avoided. Note that artifacting is most likely to occur for images below 70 KvP. For images above 70 KvP the edges are less obvious and might not be a problem. If you are concerned with artifacting, please select the uncovered, standard foam positioner option.
