Abstract

An x-ray apparatus for intra-oral radiography has an x-ray source (60); an x-ray detector (20); and an alignment system for aligning the x-ray source (60) and the x-ray detector (20). The alignment system includes a generator of a variable electromagnetic field and an electromagnetic field detector (40) for detecting the variable electromagnetic field. The alignment system further includes an intra-oral device (30) with the x-ray detector (20), wherein the generator of a variable electromagnetic field is connected to the intra-oral device (30) and the electromagnetic field detector (40) is connected to the x-ray source (60), or the generator of a variable electromagnetic field is connected to the x-ray source (60) and the electromagnetic field detector (40) is connected to the intra-oral device (30).
