eXam X-ray system _Dig eXam

Digital radiography with Dig eXam

• Innovative CMOS sensor technology ensures very little noise and very high resolution:
• Special luminescent layer fibreoptics.
• Pixel size 18.5 µm.
• Theoretical resolution 27 LP/mm.
• System resolution with test object up to 18 LP/mm is more suitable for the practice.
• No quality-reducing pixel binning necessary.
• Very simple data transfer via USB: no susceptible battery or other external power supply necessary.
• Problem-free installation without TCP/IP settings.
• Small, convenient housing of the Dig eXam trigger.
• Mobile solution integrated in In eXam or ideally integrated in the practice network.
• Dig eXam interface with following additional functions:
• Integration of one Dig eXam sensor in In eXam possible.
• Sensor automatically ready for recording on triggering of X-rays.
• Almost all intraoral X-ray units can be combined with the KaVo Dig eXam sensor and the Dig eXam software.

Work sequence with digital radiography to date (competitor)	Work sequence with KaVo eXam
1. Call up patient	(Call up patient)*
2. X-ray box switched on?
3. Remove sensor	1. Remove sensor
4. Pull cable across the room
5. Lead cable carefully to the treatment unit
6.Position sensor	2. Position sensor
7. Position emitter	3. Position emitter
8. Run back to the PC (danger of tripping)
9. Make ready for recording
10. Exposure	4. Exposure
11. Take off sensor	5. Take off sensor
12. Lead sensor and cable carefully to the X-ray box
13. Check quality of recording
14. Subsequent work and storage	6. Storage

* The image can be assigned to a patient later on.

The benefits:

• Activation of the software to make it ready for recording is superfluous.
• Multiple recordings/status recordings: assistant does not "circulate" between patient and PC/software and trigger.
• Time saving.
• Optimum work sequence.
• Minimisation of errors since there are fewer processing steps.
• Therefore fewer repeat recordings/no additional radiation exposure
• Eye contact with the patient is ensured during the entire work sequence!

Advantages of digital X-ray technology

• Immediate X-ray findings.
• Low dose, dose reduction up to 90%.
• Fast access to all relevant patient data.
• Data security and consistency of data.
• Paperless documentation.
• Space saving (no darkroom).
• Supports environmental protection (no chemicals, no disposal).
