Patient Positioning
Follow the procedure below for patient positioning:
1.
Ask the patient to remove all metal objects from their body (i.e. glasses, earrings,
hairpins, braces, or other objects that may contain the metal). The metal object
can induce ghosts that lower the image quality.
2.
Cover the patient with a radiation shield such as a lead apron.
3.
Press the Column UP/DOWN Button on the control panel or CEPH unit to adjust
the Column's height for the patient. You can also use the Column UP/Down

Cover the patient with the radiation shield before the X-ray
exposure. Children and pregnant women must wear
protective drapes or lead aprons to shield themselves from
the radiation.
Accurate patient positioning reduces the shadows cast
by the patient's cervical spine and helps to obtain a clear
image.
Metal implants or bridges may reduce the quality of the
images.
