Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When the movement of the tube and the image receptor are along a straight line, the tomographic motion is classified as linear. This means that the tube and receptor move in a straight line while the imaging plane remains fixed, allowing for a slice to be created at a specific depth. Circular and elliptical motion involve movement in a circular or elliptical path, while trispiral motion involves a combination of circular and linear motion.
