NewTom VGi - Vertical Patient CB3D Scanner

- NewTom VGi "professional-grade" CB3D scanner
- Exclusive Safe BeamTM technology sets the radiation level automatically through the evaluation of the patient's anatomical density. A small child receives up to 40% less radiation than the already very low level for a full-sized adult.
- Safe BeamTM technology automatically and continuously monitors system operations eliminating the possibility of incorrect exposures
- The first 3D scanner unit to capture both high resolution images and large volume functionality in a single machine
- Obtain resolutions down to a .075mm voxel, or acquire a large 15cm x15cm field of view scan when needed
- 7 FOV's with 4 separate possible voxel sizes
- Image taken at every degree of rotation. 360° rotation = 360 images, increasing the range of possibilities for image manipulation
- Small footprint and flexible seating make the NewTom VGi the practical choice for offices where space is at a premium
- Revolutionary flat panel x-ray detector technology and small focal spot, produce the clearest, sharpest images possible
- Patient positioning tools include cross-hair lasers and a mirror – powerful tools for exact horizontal and vertical patient positioning
- Image reconstruction at approximately 1 minute, which translates into less down time for the dental team
- Single computer terminal and economical data storage

- With much less radiation than most other cone-beam systems, and up to 20 - 50 times less radiation than conventional CT, the NewTom VGi scanner uses a unique "pulse" system that unlike other systems, activates the x-ray source only when needed
