c. Measure the radius of the circle (D/2) obtained on the Processed
Film (refer to Illustration 4-14).

10. With the measurements obtained on the step-9., calculate the “X” value,
where:
SID
X
h
d/2
D/2
X=
(d/2) x h
(D/2)--(d/2)
11. The SID value to calculate will be: SID = X + h
12. The difference between the indicated SID and the calculated SID may
not exceed 1.8 % (rejection limit) of indicated SID. Therefore the
deviation of SID calculated should be not higher than 18 mm for SID at
1 meter.
