1. INTRODUCTION AND INDICATIONS FOR USE
Only for 2D machines
:
hyperion X5 is an extraoral X-ray system for digital panoramic exams. It is intended to produce orthopanoramic
images of the maxillofacial region and to carry out diagnostic examination on teeth, dental arches and other
structures in the oral cavity.
Only for 3D machines :
hyperion X5 is an extraoral X-ray system for digital panoramic exams and tomographies, intended to:
(i) produce orthopanoramic images of the maxillofacial region and carry out diagnostic examination on teeth, dental
arches and other structures in the oral cavity;
(ii) produce tomographic images of the oral cavity and maxillofacial structures and carry out diagnostic examination
on teeth, dental arches, structures of the oral cavity and some cranial bones.
The system performs tomographic exams with the acquisition of X-ray images through a rotating sequence and the
reconstruction of a three-dimensional matrix of the examined volume, thus producing two- and three-dimensional
views of the volume itself. This technique is known as CBCT.
hyperion X5 is a digital X-ray device, suitable for expert professionals, which allows to obtain dental images in a simple
and automatic way. The image is acquired by means of an X-ray detector and a constant potential X-ray source,
powered by a high-voltage and high-frequency generator. The image is then transmitted to a computer in real time.
USA federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed healthcare practitioner.
hyperion X5 allows the following 2D projections:
- standard or panoramic views for pediatric patients (PAN);
- complete or partial views of the teeth, selected by the user (DENT);
- frontal or lateral views of the maxillary sinuses (SIN);
- lateral and posteroanterior views of the temporomandibular joints (TMJ), from different angles.
Furthermore, the 3D version machine also allows to acquire tomographic images.
hyperion X5 is intended for use in dentistry, in the following fields:
- endodontics;
- periodontology;
- dental prosthesis;
- functional diagnosis and therapy of craniomandibular dysfunctions;
- dental surgery;
- dental implants;
- maxillofacial surgery;
- orthodontics.
Not for use on patients (child) less than approximately 104 cm in height and less than 19 Kg in weight. These
height and weight measurements approximately correspond to that of an average 4 year old
Use of equipment and exposure settings designed for adults of average size can result in excessive radiation
exposure for a smaller patient. Studies have shown that pediatric patients may be more radiosensitive than
adults (i.e., the cancer risk per unit dose of ionizing radiation is higher), and so unnecessary radiation exposure
is of particular concern for pediatric patients.
Not for use with patients not vigilant and cooperative, since the patient must be able to understand and follow
the operator's instructions for a correct positioning.
