1. INTRODUCTION
The Eagle 3D Machine is a complete 3-in-1 system for dental imaging
capable of:
Analog Panoramic Profiles
Analog Cephalometric Profiles
Digital Panoramic Profiles
Digital Cephalometric Profiles
CBCT Profiles
The digital machines use a digital sensor and auto image processing that
allow a speed up the diagnostic and improve the clinic workflow.
The configuration 3D use a Cone beam Computed Tomography.
The equipment has three movement axes (two in orthogonal directions
and one rotational) making it possible to execute elaborate imaging profiles.
It features a complex profile movement around the dental arch and
radiographic emission compensation in the spinal region, when necessary
reconstructing the dental arch into a plane image. Each individual profile
prioritizes a set of characteristics improving diagnostic capabilities. For
example, the standard panoramic prioritizes image layer width, constant vertical
magnification and homogeneous exposure along the whole image. Likewise,
the low dosage profile prioritizes the reduction of dosage (time and anodic
current).
The profiles can be applied to a variety of patients: adult or child; small,
medium or large. The equipment has predefined exposure parameters
depending on patient type. However, the user can apply whatever is best for the
situation.
The user interface is composed of a control panel located close to the
patient chin rest and an exposure switch. A remote exposure switch installed
outside the radiation room is optional. The exposure switch is a dead-man type
switch.
Ease of patient positioning is complimented by the patient entry into the
machine from the side
.
There are three lasers available for positioning: Mid-
Sagittal plane, Frankfurt Plane and Image Layer Plane (canine). These features
make it possible for the user to precisely position the patient.
For patient comfort, a demonstration mode is also available making it
possible to inform the patient of the procedure prior to exposure.
