Abstract

Systems, methods and apparatus are provided through which, in some embodiments, an electronic sensor is positioned in the field of projection of an X-ray source, and the electronic sensor measures the deviation between a visible light field and an X-ray field. In some embodiments, the deviation is scaled in reference to the position of the electronic sensor between an X-ray receptor and the X-ray source.
