In the event of an actual or suspected x-ray burn or exposure, or a malfunctioning x-ray machine:

• Turn off the x-ray machine. There should be an emergency posting on or near the machine to indicate the best way to do this. Some options include:
  • Hitting the emergency stop button
  • Unplugging the unit
  • Flipping the breaker on the wall
• Call ORS at 404-894-3605. If no answer, or if GTPD services are needed, call 404-894-2500.
