System Description
The Orthoralix 8500 DDE connected to a computer comprises the system.
Major Components
Independent, microprocessor-controlled stepper motors control the movement of the rotating
imaging assembly as it moves around the patient’s head during the exposure. The beam from
the X-ray tube is collimated by a slit diaphragm and is projected on the digital sensor. The
digital sensor then captures the image information and transfers it to the operating computer.
