5.3 Compatibility with radiographic generators
VisualiX is, generally compatible with any dental X-ray unit and generator capable of
supplying the required range of exposure times and doses, which are approximately
one third or one quarter of the doses required for type D dental X-ray films.
Digital image sensors normally require much smaller exposure times than films thanks
to the high sensitivity of the CCD. This is why direct current X-ray generators are recom-
mended (“DC”, “high frequency” or “average frequency”, “with electronic converter”).
These generators can normally provide stabilised tube voltage (kV) and reproducible
exposure doses even with very short exposure times.
Gendex is committed to the reduction of the exposure dose in order to safeguard
both the patients and the practice personnel. VisualiX eHD has been designed with
the objective of providing optimum quality images at low doses. For best results
we, therefore, suggest you using exposure times under 100 ms.
