5 Imaging programs
Cephalometric Posterior-Anterior (PA) projection
PA projection imaging can be used, for example, to identify any facial
asymmetries, dentoalveolar asymmetries, dental crossbite and mandibular
displacement.
In PA projections, the patient faces away from the tubehead to keep the
radiation dose to patient's eyes in minimal level.
PA projection uses a full height image field.
Carpus view (optional)
The carpus view can be used, for example, to determine the patient's bone
age for orthodontic treatment planning.
The Carpus view program requires a separate optional carpus holder to be
attached to the device.
