5. USE OF THE X-RAY DEVICE

5.1. PATIENT POSITIONING

A positioner or alignment device specific for the selected image receiver should always be used to assure the x-rays
are correctly aligned regardless of the position the patient’s head is in.

5.2. POSITIONING THE X-RAY HEAD

Position the x-ray head so that the cone is aligned with the image receiver.

BALL JOINT TECHNOLOGY

NOTE: This section applies only to models RX DC REF: MRPU*****

(Character * can be any alphanumeric value)

In the versions equipped with ball joint, the x-ray head can freely rotate on both
its horizontal and vertical axis.
An electromechanical brake initially locks the x-ray head. To release the head
and let it rotate on the positioning ball, work on the touch sensitive unlocking
areas located on it (see points A in the figure on the side).
Touching the unlocking areas allows positioning the x-ray head at the desired
angle to perform the exposure. To lock it again, simply release the unlocking
areas.

NOTE: Firmly hold the x-ray head with both hands when putting it in place.

It is possible to set a safety unlocking mode that allows the head to be turned only by pressing both unlocking buttons.
This prevents the head from unlocking unexpectedly after one of the two unlocking buttons has been accidentally
pressed. To activate this mode, refer to section 5 “Advanced options”.

ARCH TECHNOLOGY

NOTE: This section applies only to models RX DC REF: MRXU*****

(Character * can be any alphanumeric value)

In the versions equipped with arch technology, the x-ray head can freely rotate
on both its horizontal and vertical axis.
Simply moving the x-ray head allows positioning it at the desired angle to perform
the exposure.

EN OPERATOR'S MANUAL 23
5.3. POSITION OF THE X-RAY PLATE OR SENSOR

The parallel technique, where applicable, provides more accurate images in terms of size compared to the bisecting
technique. A rectangular collimator, with 30 cm (12"), focus-skin distance, is always preferable to obtain better quality
pictures. To avoid exposing the image receiver only partly (whether it is a sensor or photostimulable phosphorus plate
system) an alignment device that gives rectangular collimators guidelines should be used. These lines are usually
given on the alignment ring.
- Parallel technique.

5 Upper arch
6 Lower arch

24 OPERATOR'S MANUAL EN
- The x ray emission axis is perpendicular to the image receiver (for example a sensor or photostimulated phosphor
plate) which in turn is parallel with the tooth’s long axis.
- As a result, the picture of the tooth will only be deformed by the divergence of the x rays in relation to the focus
spot.
- Radiographic enlargement may reach up to 15%.
- For some “special” pictures, for example occluded ones, it may be necessary to remove the rectangular collimator
and use the round one if a positioner is not present.

5.4. SETTING THE EXPOSURE MODE AND TIME

The exposure parameters are set by following the directions given below:
1) Select the tooth to be examined
2) Select the patient size

The exposure time is automatically shown on the handheld screen.

NOTE: Each tooth and patient size selected is displayed for approximately 1 second according to the
operating mode used (En60, En63 o En65).

NOTE: This section applies only to models RX DC REF: MRPU*6***, MRXU*6***

(Character * can be any alphanumeric value)

NOTE: This section applies only to models RX DC REF: MRPU*7***, MRXU*7***

(Character * can be any alphanumeric value)

The suggested exposure time can be changed with keys and . Exposure times ranging from 0.02s to 1.00s

belonging to the R'20 scale can be set. Random exposure times different from the ones provided in the R’20 scale

cannot be set.

handheld changes over to stand-by.

EN OPERATOR'S MANUAL 25
 WARNING:
After customised settings have been made, the “Original exposure values charts” are no longer valid.

If icon is displayed while the exposure time is changed, it means that the set time cannot be saved for the selected

tooth-patient size combination. In any case, the x-rays can be taken with the set time.
WARNING:
When the suggested exposure time is changed, the sensitivity factor is also modified (by default set to F=19).
Once this change has been saved, it is applied to all the teeth and both patient sizes.

The exposure time can also be modified by changing the sensitivity factor. To do so, press keys and at the

same time; the actual sensitivity factor will be displayed.

Use keys and to change the value from 3 to 25. If the displayed value differs from the previous setting, icon

comes on. To quit this mode, press key or to confirm. The change made to the sensitivity factor is

applied to all the teeth and both patient sizes.

The operating mode selected is always used for each combination of tooth and patient size.
In AUTO mode, each tooth and patient size combination is associated to the best mode from amongst the ones
available. In this mode, it is not possible to assign a mode other than the default one to each combination.

11.2. TECHNICAL FACTOR MEASURE

The high voltage value is measured with a non-invasive instrument.

The anode current is controlled inside with measurement resistors and circuits to obtain very precise measurements.
Operation of the circuits is checked at the time of testing. Once assembled, the anode current can no longer be directly
measured.
The exposure time should be evaluated by measuring the time that elapses from the moment in which high voltage
exceeds 75% of the nominal value to the moment in which it drops below this value. Considering the high gradient of
the rising and trailing edges of the anode voltage and squaring due to inherent filtration, use of a threshold ranging
from 25% to 75% may be considered non-influential.

14. TIMES/SENSITIVITY CHARTS

When using the x-ray unit, in conjunction with the intraoral sensor of the Manufacturer, it is recommended to use a
default value of sensitivity equal to F15.
If using phosphorous plates of the Manufacturer, it is recommended to set a sensitivity value equal to F16.
For the analogue films the optimum sensitivity is F19.
For sensors other than the previous ones, you need to find the appropriate exposure time in relation to the image that
you want to obtain. Once identified this time for a specific combination of tooth and patient size, you can set the
sensitivity parameter in accordance with the exposure time found (procedure described in paragraph 5.4).
