Use, Care, Maintenance and Infection Control
Use proper dental aseptic techniques. As with other radiographic procedures, the use of
imaging plate requires the same high standards of infection control. Unfortunately, imaging
plates create a greater challenge since they are not disposable. Another problem is that there
is a higher potential for damaging them since they are reusable. Damage can result in the
production of artifacts that may interfere with the diagnosis of disease. Hygienic bags have
been found in most cases to be effective in protecting the imaging plate from becoming
contaminated. The hygienic bags should be removed after use on each patient to prevent
cross-contamination. The hygienic bags are for single patient use only. Never reuse a
hygienic bag.
