Abstract
The authors have compared the inclination of the condyle path and the inclination of the widest part of the fossa articularis from the median sagittal plane, in our population. They have investigated the degree of correlation of the found variables. Based on their findings, they propose a deflection of the central beam in the value of 161 arcus degree in x-rays if it is required at the same time to obtain a precise tangential picture of the condyle path and an axial finding of the widest diameter of the fossa articularis and the condyle. The value of 161 arcus degree represents the deflection of the central beam from the median sagittal plane which is registered beginning on zero degree at the torus occipitalis.
