UUUU.3.2.6.3 Panoramic Dental Radiography

Panoramic dental radiography describes imaging of the head for dental treatment. These systems use a panoramic X-Ray system with an X-Ray source and X-Ray Detector to acquire data. In the case of an integrated system, both the X-Ray Source and X-Ray Detector rotate around the patient's head. For non-integrated detector systems, only the X-Ray Source rotates. These systems position the patient in an upright standing or seated position.
