The scanner is an open design that allows patients to sit upright during a procedure. An
electric powered seat is built into the scanner for proper patient positioning. The scanner
captures data for 3D skull reconstruction for the following procedures:
•
Implants
•
TM Joints
•
Reconstructed Panoramic
•
Reconstructed Cephalometrics
•
Airway / Sinus, etc.
•
Nerve Canal
•
PAN - Optional Conventional Digital Panoramic Feature
Cone Beam Volumetric Tomography is a medical imaging technique that uses X-rays to
obtain cross-sectional images of the head or neck. Quality of the images depends on the level
and amount of X-ray energy delivered to the tissue. Imaging displays both high-density
tissue, such as bone, and soft tissue. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images
provide useful diagnostic information.
Operator Control Box
The operator control box must be located outside of the patient environment, and can be
placed on a desktop or wall-mounted. The site layout must provide a means for audio and
visual communication between the operator and patient during scanning.
ON
powers the scanner and the POWER indicator lights to show that the scanner is ON.
OFF
removes power from the scanner and the POWER indicator goes OFF.
SCAN
initiates patient X-ray scanning.
EMERGENCY STOP
immediately halts all X-ray and scanning activities.
NOTE:
The following indicators are also located on the scanner overhead.
POWER
indicator is lit when the scanner is ON.
READY
indicator is lit when a scan is initiated and the scanner is ready to scan. If the
optional deadman handswitch is installed, this indicator will flash to alert the operator to
press the handswitch.
X-RAY
indicator is lit during X-ray exposure.
FAULT
indicator lights when a scanner error occurs, such as an X-ray exposure problem
or early release of the optional deadman handswitch.
