| cephalometric radiograph |
A standardized radiograph of the head characterized by a precisely defined relationship among x-ray source, subject and film. By convention, the distance between x-ray source and the 'center' of the subject (midsagittal plane or transporionic axis) is either 5 feet (1 52.4 cm.) or 150 cm. The distance between the midsagittal plane or transporionic axis of the subject and film is approximately 12 cm. ...
