The sensor may alternatively be positioned by hand, held in place by the patient with
one nger just like conventional X-ray lm. If the positioning device is not used, a wad
of cotton wool may be useful for aligning the sensor parallel to the tooth. It may be
best to position the sensor by hand in the small mouths of children. Note however
that image quality might be inferior with respect to the one attained using an aiming
device.
4) Position the X-ray generator as usual for X-ray lm.
Use of the parallel technique is highly recommended, with a rectangular cone if pos-
sible.

5) Acquire the image by pressing the X-ray button on your radiography system.
