Abstract
A system and method for obtaining an intra-oral X-ray image of a patient. The system includes an information carrier plate having an affixed NFC/RFID tag. The NFC/RFID tag includes a memory. A primary tagging device reads and writes temporary information into the tag's memory over a first communication channel. A scanner is in communication with a secondary tagging device to read and write the temporary information saved in the tag's memory over a second communication channel.
