Most Panoramic CMOS sensors use lower-cost materials that are less sensitive to x-ray. Therefore, these sensors must convert x-ray to light before converting to a digital signal. This can result in image blurriness because the extra conversion step can cause the radiation to “fan out” and inadvertently trigger surrounding pixels. The Panoura 18S utilizes a Direct Conversion (sometimes referred to as “Cadmium Telluride”) sensor that converts x-ray directly to digital, which contributes to a much sharper image. Better detail, higher confidence, no retakes Every scan captures over 50 different panoramic layers! With most panoramic x-ray units, the arch of the patient needs to be exactly where the machine wants: along the path where the beam is focused. If positioning is not precise, a poor image can result. If the patient shifts slightly during the time the operator walks out to initiate the scan, a poor image can result. If the patient’s arch doesn’t match the trajectory of the scan, certain anatomy may not be in focus. The emergence profile of the anteriors could make it difficult to capture both mandibular and maxillary apices clearly in the panoramic scan. The Panoura 18S also has Multi-Focal Plane capture capability. This means that every scan captures many layers both forward and backward. This creates a wide “envelope” where much more data is captured around where the patient is positioned. Great images even if your staff’s technique is less than perfect!

Vertical bitewing feature as well as FMX Clipping feature creates 18 intraoral-sized images clipped from the pan with one click.
