Preparing and Positioning the Pediatric Patient
To prepare and position the pediatric patient, follow these steps:
1. Ask the pediatric patient to remove all metal objects.
2. Ask the pediatric patient to wear a lead apron with a thyroid collar. Ensure that the
apron lays flat across the pediatric patient’s shoulders.
3. Open the head clamps and ask the pediatric patient to sit, for a more comfortable
position, or stand up straight in front of the cephalometric unit, in the appropriate
position.
4. On the control panel, press and hold to level the ear cones to the pediatric
patient’s auditory canals.
