Planmeca Oy 30004941 Planmeca Viso

The Planmeca Viso -X-ray unit uses cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to produce three-dimensional (3D) images of the maxillofacial and ENT anatomies. Two dimensional (2D) images are produced with tomosynthesis method (panoramic) imaging) as well as conventional 2D radiography (cephalometric imaging, 2D views). In CBCT a cylindrical volume of data is captured in one imaging procedure. The data consists of several hundred sample images which are taken from different directions to cover a certain pre-programmed target area. These samples are used for 3D reconstruction (using a separate 3D reconstruction PC) that can be viewed in three dimensions using separate workstation and Planmeca Romexis software.
