Abstract: | The roentgenograms obtained with this device (Fig. 9) have been similar to those obtained with the Updegrave apparatus. The advantages observed are:- 1. The upright position of the patient.
- 2. The prefocused simplicity of alignment of the tube head and cassette.
- 3. The ease and accuracy of positioning because the earplug can be seen in position.
- 4. The use of a marking system which informs the operator of the exposure to be made in each position of the cassette.
- 5. The fact that the device can be used either with the patient in the dental chair, or on any sort of stool or chair depending on the location of the machine and the space available.
- 6. The short time required to go through the procedure including setting up and taking down the apparatus.
