ENGLISH 1.2.1. QUALITY DETERMINANTS IN X-RAY INTRAORAL RADIOGRAPHY Image quality is linked to the precise and accurate acquisition of information from the x-ray beam transmitted through the patient (ito the x-ray detector). Most problems in dental radiography are not the result of x-ray equipment failure: the production of consistent and high quality x-ray diagnostic images, concurrent with minimal patient exposure, depends generally on different components: quality performance of equipment, characteristics of the modules used which affect the imaging system resolution (i.e.: x-ray image detector type and relevant image processing chain, analogue or digital) and optimal performance of the operator. Among the physical factors for achieving optimum image quality, the following can be considered: - optimum optical density and Wiener spectrum, - detectors for radiography must meet the needs of the specific radiological procedure where they will be used and key parameters are spatial resolution, uniformity of response, contrast sensitivity, dynamic range, acquisition speed and frame rate - minimization of motion blurring (using short exposure times), - minimization of geometric blurring (reducing the focal spot size and/or of the object-film distance), - geometric distortions, - correct positioning: errors in patient positioning when using uncoupled positioning devices during the various typologies of x-ray examinations may lead to exposure errors, which require additional x-ray exposures, thereby increasing the radiation dose adsorbed by the patient. This means that it is absolutely essential and mandatory that the operator consider the performances not only of the X-MIND unity equipment itself, but the whole chain of components that bring to the final x-ray diagnostic image. The essential parameters and relevant metrics which describe the performance of dental X-ray system, with regard to imaging properties and patient dose, methods of testing and whether measured quantities related to those parameters complying with the specified tolerances, are stated by the respective manufacturers and by the requirements specified by the respective applicable standards. Radiographic films, film processing, digital x-ray image detectors, and imaging plates are vital parts in the imaging chain. It is responsibility of the operator to ensure that these components perform in an acceptable way, with respect to sensitivity, contrast and absence of artifacts. A test of the performance of these components shall precede any acceptance test measurement involving the irradiation of the x-ray detectors using the X-MIND unity1. ! WARNING
It is full responsibility of the operator and RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATIONS of the X-MIND unity to check that any kind of x-ray detectors used with the X-MIND unity are in compliance with the requirements stated by their specific regulations in force and to the specifications stated by their respective manufacturers.

ENGLISH 2.1. SYSTEM COMPONENTS The X-MIND unity x-ray system (Fig.1) consists of the following components:
1. X-RAY CONTROL UNIT (TIMER) 2. With it’s clear and highly visible display this component allows for easy and clear selection, of the exposure settings, the creation of personal settings while alerting you with a visual display and an audible alert in case of incorrect operation or eventual failures. 3. This is possible due to the control panel which represents the operator interface between device and operator. 4. The timer also contains the x-ray exposure switch, which triggers the x-ray when the button is depressed. 5. The internal sub-mechanical architecture of the X-ray control unit provides the necessary wall framework for 6. fixating the control unit to a wall. 7. HORIZONTAL BRACKET The horizontal bracket is available in 3 different lengths and represents the support for the scissor arm. Its shaft is fixed in a dedicated section in the middle of the timer (top or bottom) and allows for 180° movement. 8. PANTOGRAPH TYPE ARM (SCISSOR) 9. Due to the new shape and mechanism of the articulating arm, it can be adjusted in height and depth for easy and precise movement to any position. It is equipped with internal balancing springs and made of extruded aluminum arms covered by PC-ABS material enclosures. 10. X-RAY SOURCE ASSEMBLY (TUBEHEAD) The tubehead of the X-MIND unity contains the x-ray tube, the high voltage board and the high frequency generator. The high voltage board, the x-ray tube and the expansion chamber are submerged in a sealed aluminum chamber containing highly dielectric insulating oil. The expansion chamber guarantees the expansion of oil over the whole range of operating temperatures according to the technical specifications of the device.
