Systems and methods utilizing a two-way mirror display for patient self-positioning for dental x-ray image acquisition. The system includes a camera configured to capture an image of a patient, a display, a two-way mirror positioned between a patient location and the display, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to select, based upon a user input, an operating mode for the display; and based upon the selected operating mode, displaying at least one image on the display. The method includes receiving image data from a camera, identifying at least one facial feature of the patient in the image data, determining if a face of the patient is aligned with at least one anatomical plane based upon the at least one facial feature, and displaying at least one movement guide on a display based upon the determined alignment of the face of the patient.

The application relates to an X-ray imaging system () for dental X-ray imaging. The system comprises a controller, a rotating gantry (), an X-ray source () for emitting X-rays, and an X-ray imaging detector () for receiving the X-rays from the source. The gantry comprises the source and detector (). The controller is configured to control the source to emit X-ray radiation and the detector for receiving the emitted radiation in order to acquire an X-ray image data. The system further comprises a depth information-producing camera (), which is configured to produce a depth information, and a position information-producing component (), which is configured to produce a position information, for acquiring at least a location data of the depth information-producing camera and detector during the irradiation, synchronously with the image data to be reconstructed.
