Slanting. A slash (/) is oblique
Axiolateral oblique is a radiographic positioning technique used primarily in dental imaging to obtain clear views of the mandible and temporomandibular joint (TMJ). In this position, the patient's head is tilted away from the X-ray beam, and the film is placed perpendicular to the central ray, allowing for better visualization of the structures without superimposition. This technique is particularly effective in assessing the integrity of the mandible and surrounding anatomy.
