Position the patient's back and cervical spine as straight as possible.
6.
Adjust the instrument to the patient's sitting height using the
Column UP/DOWN
on the Handle frame or the optional UP/DOWN switch while the patient holds the
handle.
7.
Close contact patient's chest to the handle frame.
8.
Guide the patient to press the base of the nose (acanthion point) against the
Chinrest and tilt the head forward about 5˚. At this point, make sure the patient's
jaw does not touch the equipment.
If the jaw touches the equipment, it is difficult to maintain
the proper position to get good images.
Be careful; the patient does not touch the equipment with
his/her jaw.
9.
Let the patient maintain the posture as follows:
Open the mouth.
Place the tongue on the roof of the mouth.
Close the eyes.
As shown in the picture, the support unit of the integrated
Chinrest should touch the patient's acanthion point.
Ask the patient to maintain his/her position until the
operation is completed.
