Patient positioning

Stable patient positioning

Good image quality can only be achieved if the patient is held accurately and firmly in position. The CRANEX D’s four point patient positioning system ensures patient stability.

Patient positioning

  • The red positioning light makes it easy to see the center of anterior layer.
  • The motorized movements are operated from the unit’s control panel.
  • A hinged mirror allows the operator to verify the correct patient position prior to taking the image.

Patient support

Once correctly positioned, rigid support of the patient’s head is essential to avoid patient movement and image blurring. The CRANEX D utilizes a four-point patient holding system that firmly yet gently holds the patient’s head in place. The patient’s head is supported at three points, and the chin with the chin support and a bite block or lip support.

Open design

The open design of the CRANEX D assures that patient entry and exit is easy and comfortable. The operator has an open access to patient and clear visibility during the patient positioning.
