New device for mandibular distraction

Dr Grant Fairbanks is using a new device for mandibular distraction.
It is threaded but not ratcheted and therefore can unscrew, losing ground.
He will be obtaining followup radiographs to check the distraction every 2-3 weeks on patients and would like an AP like the image attached as well as bilateral obliques with the interested side flat against the cassette to minimize magnification and obtain a reproducible measurement. The obliques may need a little cephalic angulation to prevent superimposition of the hardware. He is interested in the distance between the two plates. Their inner margins mark the edges of the osteotomy.
Attached is a sample Powerscribe macro if you like.
