Course of the examination

The examination lasts 20 seconds and is not painful. No anesthesia is needed.

The nurse will accompany you to the examination room and will assist you in taking the images.
The device with the X-ray tube and detector rotates around the head so that the structures of the head can be imaged. You are not allowed to move your head, which is why it is fixed.
In one overview, the radiologist can see from this picture if there is anything abnormal in facial growth and its development.
After the examination, we can make 3D reconstructions on a workstation.

The radiologist who performed the examination makes an initial interpretation of the images during the examination. After the final interpretation, the radiologist sends a report to the doctor who requested the examination. Only this doctor can discuss the results with you.

This examination is only possible by appointment. Please always bring your identity card, your doctor's prescription and any previous radiological examinations with you.
