LONG CCD SENSOR AND PANORAMA X-RAY MACHINE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a panorama X-ray machine for dentistry, in which a photographing using film and a photographing using CCD sensor can be easily switched by exchanging cassettes. SOLUTION: CCD sensors are arranged in a line longitudinally along a secondary slit on the cassette mounting part, inclined in a same condition in the depth direction viewed from the X-ray generating part toward the cassette mounting part, and placed so that effective pixel parts of upper and lower neighboring CCD sensors overlap in front and back in the depth direction viewed from the X-ray generating part toward the cassette mounting part.
