8.1.3 Preparing Planmeca Romexis
First select the patient.
Then select the 3D exposure.
Refer to the Planmeca Romexis User’s Manual for details on Romexis
functions.
8.2 Preparing patient
Ask the patient to remove any spectacles, hearing aids, dentures, hairpins,
and personal jewellery such as earrings, necklaces and piercings as these
can produce shadows or reflections in the image. The patient should also
remove any loose items of clothing (e.g. scarf, tie) that might get caught in
the arm structures of the X-ray unit.
NOTE
High contrast objects, such as gold teeth or amalgam, may cause artefacts
in the image.
If you take a 3D face photo at the same time as you take an X-ray image,
ask the patient to keep their hair away from their face and ears.
Place a protective lead apron over the patient’s back if required.
8.3 Selecting exposure settings
Refer to section "Touch screen" on page 14 for general information on how
to make or cancel selections on the touch screen.
