A radiography system includes: a radiation source that emits radiation; an imaging stand having a detection panel that generates a radiation image by detecting the radiation; a lifting device on which a subject to be examined is placed; a misalignment amount detection device that detects a relative misalignment amount between the imaging stand and the subject to be examined; and a lifting control device that lifts and lowers the lifting device on the basis of the misalignment amount detected by the misalignment amount detection device.

An intraoral x-ray system mountable to a dentist’s office wall including components movable to compensate for defects in the wall’s flatness or the wall not being sufficiently perpendicular to the floor. The system also includes monitoring and compensation capabilities to compensate for drift in the position of the system’s x-ray source or patient movement before and during x-ray imaging, thereby avoiding the need for the taking of additional x-ray images and exposing the patient unnecessarily to extra x-ray dose. Additionally, the system further includes a data/signal processing unit that allows the x-ray source to be precisely moved along a predetermined trajectory and allows the system to perform computed tomosynthesis examinations of a patient. In addition, the x-ray source is attachable/detachable from the system’s robotic arm, with the system compensating automatically for the change in weight at the robotic arm’s end due to removal of the x-ray source.
