6. Acquiring PANO Images
Aligning the Laser Beams
NOTE
Clicking on the ‘Confirm’ button after setting the
parameters for imaging will activate the three laser beams
(Mid-sagittal plane, Frankfurt plane and Canine) to facilitate
patient alignment. The beams will disappear after 20
minutes or if the ‘Ready’ button is clicked.
To turn the laser beams on or off, click the icon on the
handle frame or the icon on the imaging GUI.
WARNING
Be careful not to project the laser beams directly into the
patient’s eyes as this could severely damage the patient’s
vision.
A.
Mid-sagittal plane laser beam:
Position the Mid-sagittal plane laser beam
on the center of the patient’s face to prevent magnifications of the left or right
side in the final image.
B.
Frankfurt plane laser beam:
Position the patient’s head so that the
Frankfurt plane is aligned with the Frankfurt plane laser beam.
* The Frankfurt plane is the plane which joins the infra-orbital point to the
superior border of the external auditory meatus.
C.
Canine laser beam:
Have the patient smile to properly position the canine
laser beam on the center of the patient’s canine tooth.
