Receptor placement PSP uses a generic holder, thin and flexible.

• A. CCD/CMOS
• B. Both
• C. Neither
• D. PSP

Answer: (D)

This tests how receptor design affects placement hardware. PSP plates are thin and flexible, so they can be seated in a generic, universal holder rather than a sensor-specific, rigid frame. Their flexible, bendable nature allows them to conform to the holder and dental arch, making a broad-fit solution practical. In contrast, CCD/CMOS sensors are rigid and have fixed housings, requiring dedicated, sensor-specific holders to ensure proper alignment and stability during imaging. So the statement that PSP uses a generic holder because it is thin and flexible is the best fit, reflecting how its physical properties enable universal placement.
