10.3. TAKING A PANORAMIC EXPOSURE
When "Ready to Expose" is shown on the display the system is ready to take an
exposure.
Ask the patient to close their lips on the bite guide, swallow, place their tongue flat
against the roof of their mouth, breathe normally, and stand as still as possible.
Move to a protected area without losing direct eye contact to the patient.
Press and hold down the exposure button. The machine will first move to the start
position and then it will proceed with the exposure. During exposure, a visual LED and
audible beeping will indicate the presence of x-ray emission.
The exposure switch is a dead-man like switch. If released, the x-ray exposure will stop
immediately. Otherwise, after the rotation has completed and audible beeping stops you
may release the exposure switch.
Upon completion of the exposure, the arm will rotate to the patient exit position. At
this point, you may guide the patient out of the machine.
ATTENTION
MAINTAIN AUDIAL AND VISUAL CONTACT WITH THE PATIENT
AND UNIT DURING THE WHOLE EXPOSURE PROCESS. IF THE
EXPOSURE OR MOVEMENT STOPS DURING THE PROCESS DUE
TO AN INTERNAL ERROR, RELEASE THE SWITCH AND ASSIST
THE PATIENT OUT OF THE MACHINE.
In order to reset the rotating arm for the next patient, press the SELECT button on the
control panel.
