Panoramic and Cephalometric System Market Leading Digital Performance! The Orthoralix 9200 DDE combines advanced imaging features with the latest generation of CCD sensor technoloy. The Orthoralix 9200 DDE direct digital pan/ceph systems delivers maximum diagnostic image quality at a cost that leaves higher-priced competitors out of the picture. The advanced kinematics system provides an elaborate image path, maximizing panoramic image quality. In contrast to conventional cam-driven mechanical systems, the Orthoralix 9200's robotic mechanism captures patients' anatomy accurately over a wider range of patient profiles. The result is a more efficient diagnosis of pathology and improved productivity for your practice. Maximum Diagnostic imaging! The Orthoralix 9200 AEC panoramic system offers radiographic projections of major interest to dentists, surgeons and maxillo-facial radiologists. Gendex Takes An Award-Winning Design To The Next Level Gendex releases the newly designed Orthoralix 8500 DDE digital panoramic with added features, a sleek modern design, plus continued affordability! Gendex is pleased to announce the launch of the new Orthoralix 8500 DDE digital panoramic system. Building on the previous 8500 that won the highest awards for its medical and industrial design attributes, Gendex is now taking this release to the next level. Video Features Multi-motorized rotation with up to 3 computer controlled motors offers the best diagnostic image quality with constant magnification factor High frequency DC X-ray source with a 0.4mm focal spot for ultimate diagnostic results One touch pad manages system movements and the other controls technique factors Three laser beams enable precise patient positioning Lateral positioning devices, handgrip and integrated chin rest allow patient to be held in a stable and comfortable position Telescopic column and optional light, free standing base provide easy installation Features: Fully robotic, software controlled motion path DC tubehead with 0.5 mm focal spot Automatic exposure control (AEC) MOTORized vertical column three-point positioning lights Upgradable to pan/ceph Ten standard imaging programs Optional Transcan tomographic program Two digital options Operator flexibility Real time corrections Enhanced control panel Features: CCD sensor module replaces film and cassette Connects to a standard PC or to an Ethernet connection Fully robotic, software controlled image path DC tubehead with 0.5 mm (IEC) focal spot Automatic exposure control (AEC) Motorized vertical column Three point positioning laser beams Ten standard imaging programs Optional Transcan tomographic program Accurate positioning Adjusts to your needs The Orthoralix 9200 DDE's space efficient footprint and comfortable positioning features make the system easy to access and utilize. The support of ceph sensor module can be rotated 90 degrees to facilitate operation in reduced spaces. For the Latero-lateral view, a special precision soft tissue filter is supplied which easily adapts to any patient's facial profile. The system has: Three laser positioning beams Fingertip controlled motorized column Three point patient positioning system Flexible positioning Operator convenience Maximum patient positioning can be achieved even in the most challenging situations. A fully motorized and highly accurate positioning mechanism assures maximum precision. The patient remains stationary, thus requiring little adjustment from the operator. Tools are provided for more difficult projections such as Transcan Transversal Tomographic System and TMJ Programs. Better Imaging Multi-motorized rotation The Orthoralix 8500 provides the best imaging performance possible through multi-motorized rotation. The rotating arm has freedom of motion with each movement driven be a separated, microprocessor-controlled motor. Until recently, only higher-priced panoramic systems offered this benefit. The X-ray tube is completely free to rotate and relocate itself forward and backward, right and left Free movements of the X-ray tubehead allows the best focal trough reconstruction The pan unit accurately follows the patient's morphology to assure the best focal trough in terms of shape and thickness Better diagnostics in panoramic imaging begins with recognition of critical aspects of the patient’s anatomy, especially focal areas. With the new 8500, focal detection is made possible by KINEMAGIC™ Articulated Motion Technology. This morphology-tracing feature precisely follows the patient’s focal trough to ensure constant focus across the image. The result is a highly diagnostic image with consistent magnification. Images from the new 8500 DDE are clear and sharp due in part to the industry’s smallest focal spot of 0.4 mm. Utilizing the latest software processing algorithms, the image data from this next generation panoramic system produces radiographs that accurately represent critical anatomies of patients. Along with child and adult pan projections, Gendex added TMJ imaging to the new panoramic system. Both frontal and lateral TMJ projections are easy to capture. Plus these new views add to the system’s value allowing dentists to take images that otherwise may be referred out. “Research indicates that adding panoramics to the practice increases diagnostics and also increases production,” states Chuck Ravetto, Vice President of Marketing for Gendex. “We are proud to offer the new 8500 not only for its highly desired features, but because it is a wise investment that helps dentists grow their practices.” Clinicians and patients alike can appreciate the new patient positioning devices. Easy-to-use leveractuated temple supports and improved bite guides help the team quickly and efficiently ensure better patient stability for more consistent imaging while providing increased patient comfort. Enhancing the visual appeal of the previous 8500, winner of the prestigious GOOD DESIGN® award in 2004 for its contemporary style, the new 8500 sports a more sleek industrial design that compliments the aesthetics in any office. Its small footprint also makes it a good choice for dentists who want to save valuable square footage. Gendex, known for its reliable, innovative, and affordable imaging equipment, offers a wide variety of solutions for both general dentists and specialists. The company’s strong history in x-ray manufacturing, along with a deep dedication to deliver products that meet the needs of dental professionals, have earned Gendex numerous awards from the dental community and design world. Highest detail recognition Projections-standard and child panoramic High frequency DC X-ray generator Smallest focal spot (0.4mm) for the sharpest image quality kV modulation for the best reconstruction of images Wide possibility for technical factors settings, both preset and manual Specific trajectory of overhead movement guarantees a precise adaptation to a child's morphology Radiology programs Basic panoramic radiology programs Offers the following: Standard panoramic projection-most common routine examination Child projection-no overlapping of crowns in the premolar region Orthogonal dentition-sharp and undistorted view limited to the dentition Orthogonal half-panoramic-free of redundant shadows from the spinal cord Lateral views of the TMJ-accurate examination of the base and section of each joint Precise imaging State of the art sensor The Orthoralix 9200 DDE's new sensor replaces the traditional film cassette, eliminating the expense and hassle of a processor, film and chemicals. The Orthoralix 9200 DDE acquires high resolution panoramic, dento-maxillo-facial, transcan and cephalometric images in real time and allows a reduction fo the patient dose of up to 70% compared with traditional film. The Orthoralix offers precise imaging with the following features: First panoramic controlled path Motion path which keeps diagnostic details in focus Accurately captures patient's anatomy over a wide range of patient profiles AEC system Automatic Exposure Control The choice of exposure parameters is made easier by use of the AEC-Automatic Exposure control. Beyond patient size setting, AEC measures residual dosage during scanning and allows real time correction of technical factors which ensures optimum image contrast and balance. The unit includes five cephalometric programs with a microprocessor-controlled soft-tissue filter.
