Metric Calibration
The process of metric calibration must be performed at least one time
after installation.
The metric calibration depends on the radiographic technique used.
The metric technique must be performed every time the technique is
changed.
The intraoral calibration is unique for any device and it depends on the radiographic
technique used. There are two basic periapical radiographic techniques: the Bisector
Technique and Parallelism Technique
a) Radiographic techniques
Parallelism Technique or Long cone
In this technique, the digital sensor is placed in parallel to the axis plan of the tooth
and the focal point of the x-ray generator must be positioned at a distance around 40cm
of the sensor.
