Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for calibrating the center of an imaging device, such as a camera, to the center of an X-ray beam projected by a tiltable X-ray generator. The system includes a protractor assembly with a rotatable vertical leg mounted to the X-ray generator, supporting an imaging device maintained at zero tilt relative to an image receptor. Real-time imaging data is transmitted wirelessly to a head positioning system that incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) to detect and align the imaging device center to the X-ray beam center using image recognition. The AI system enables precise, software-based calibration without physical realignment of the patient's head, facilitating accurate and reproducible diagnostic imaging of complex cervical structures, such as the C1/C2 vertebrae. The system also minimizes unnecessary radiation exposure by enabling tighter collimation of the X-ray field.
