In the Azurion system, the user can add a new study to a patient by selecting the option Add
Study . The Add Study dialogue box is then displayed where the Patient Type is selected to
perform the study. Due to a software defect, when the study is initiated by pressing Start
Procedure , the Patient Type changes inadvertently to a Patient Type different than the one
selected as shown in the Table below. Patient type is one of the factors involved in the dose
control process. The incorrect patient type changes the technique factors to be used by the
