5. Instruct the patient to close his eyes.
6. Press the key "Centring devices ON" (14) .
Two laser beams will light up the sagittal medial plane line and the
horizontal line for the Frankfurt plane reference (the plane that
identifies a line that ideally links the ear hole - the auditory meatus -
with the lower part of the orbital fossa in Figure 10). Position the
patient's head in such a way as to ensure that the luminous beams
fall in correspondence with the respective anatomical references.
The luminous beam of the Frankfurt plane can be adjusted according
to the patient's height; this can be adjusted by means of the laser
knob on the side of the mirror.
NOTE:
The laser centring device will stay lit up until the "Centring Devices ON"
(14) key or, at the end of the alignment, the key "Patient Entrance"
(6) is pressed to start the exposure.
7. Close the temple clasps and bring the forehead support close; this
will help the patient to stay in a correct position. Check that, during
this phase, the patient has not changed position.
8. Press the key "Patient Entrance" (6) to confirm the
parameters. The luminous centring devices switch off and the
rotating arm goes to its examination start position. Once alignment
has been completed, the following message will be displayed:
x x k V x x m A 9 . 7 0 s
S T A R T E X A M
x = value defined by the settings
The green LED "Ready for X-ray" lights up to indicate that pressing
the X-ray button once more will start the radiation phase.
9. Ask the patient to: keep the lips closed, keep perfectly still and
do not look at the rotating arm during the movements.
