8.3. DISPERSED RADIATION
Measurements of dispersed radiation are significantly affected by environmental conditions, such as the composition
of walls and their position, therefore, in certain circumstances, values can be significantly different.
The measurement points used are at a distance of 0.5 m, 1.0 m, 2.0 m and 3.0 m from a central axis.
Circular measurement curves refer to the above mentioned axis.
Dispersed radiation is measured in standard panoramic X-ray mode or in 3D mode with medium field in patients with
a large build, selected with a phantom cylinder PMMA (Ф 16 cm diameter x 17 cm height) to simulate the patient’s
head.
1) Standard panoramic X-ray: Dispersed radiation measured at the maximum percentage of use permitted by the X-
ray generator (it corresponds to an average anode power of 42 W).
Distance between the rotation axis and the
measurement point

ray generator (it corresponds to an average anode power of 42 W).

It is the highest value at 15 cm over the horizontal intersection plane with the patient’s bite. The other values of
the vertical axis are lower than these values.
