protection must be observed.
• If the Veraviewepocs is not enclosed by an X-ray booth
or other protective barrier, everyone except the patient
must stay outside the area shown in the illustration
during X-ray emission.
The X-ray protection area should consist of a wall, floor
and ceiling with a minimum of 1.5 mm lead shielding or
its equivalent and should have glass windows with a
minimum of 1.5 mm lead shielding or its equivalent,
through which the operator can observe the patient. A
sign should clearly identify the area as an X-ray
protection area, and a caution sign should light up
during X-ray emission. Observe local regulations.
• The patient must be provided with appropriate X-ray protection gear such as lead-impregnated
clothing that conforms to local regulations.
• Proper infection control procedures must be established and maintained for each patient.
• It is strongly suggested that no unauthorized personnel be in the immediate area when the equipment
is in use.
• This unit is not designed for and must not be used for “fluoroscopic examinations”.
• Proper radiation safety precautions must be established in accordance with local, state and governmental
regulations in regards to operator and patient protection. The ultimate responsibility lies with the
owner/operator to ensure that the protection requirements of national and local codes are met.

Calibrating Digital Cephalo Data for Software Analysis
Digital cephalo data must be calibrated for whatever analysis software you are using.
NOTE
Measurements will not be correct if the data is not calibrated.
* Cephalo image data has a resolution of 176 dpi.

* Refer to the user’s manual for your analysis software for instruction on how to calibrate the data.
Calibration Data
* A floppy disk with the calibration data is provided. It is titled “Chart(176dpi).jpg”
How to Use the Calibration Data
♦ Import the data into your analysis software.

♦ Refer to the user’s guide for your analysis software to perform the calibration.
* The distance from the center of one cross to the next in the data image is 27.5 mm.
Therefore, the total distance of 4 crosses is 110 mm.
♦ Based on the above distances, select calibration points and check the distance between them.
For example, calibrate the software so that the distance from one cross to the fourth cross away from it is
110 mm.
* Keep the calibration data in a handy, safe place.
