The two planes that can be visualized by the radiographer are the estimated long axis of the tooth and the plane of the image receptor

Indicate whether the statement is true or false

True. To cast an accurate shadow representation of a tooth onto the image receptor, the angle formed by the long axis of the tooth and the plane of the image receptor must be bisected. One must first find the long axis of the tooth and then find the long axis of the image receptor as it is placed next to the tooth. After visualizing these two planes, one must imagine a line, called the "bisector," which bisects the angle where the long axis of the tooth and the long axis of the image receptor plane meet.
