DIGITAL X-RAY SYSTEM INTRODUCTION
2.1. FUNCTIONS AND PERFORMANCE
The SOPIX series digital X-ray imaging systems are intended to be used by a dental practitioner. The sensor (located in the patient’s
mouth just like a silver fi lm) captures the X-rays produced by the generator. Then it transmits this data to the computer to display
the X-ray image on the screen.
All the images captured with the SOPIX series system can be recalled onto the screen with the Sopro Imaging software provided with
the system. This software manages the display, processing and storage of images taken with the SOPIX series system.
A.C.E™ (Automatic Control Exposure) technology, patented by SOPRO, provides the system with outstanding features. In real time
it analyses the quantity of energy received by the sensor, which fi xes the image acquisition once it has received the energy needed
to produce a good-quality image. As a result, every image is protected against overexposure.
Integration of the SOPIX inside and SOPIX² inside systems into the X-Mind unity X-ray generator from the company De Götzen, which
is a member of the ACTEON group, provides a communication that is unique in the world. Once the sensor has received the energy
necessary to obtain a good-quality image, it sends the information to the generator which cuts X-ray emission. The dose received
by the patient is thus adapted to his/her dental morphology. Since the A.C.E technology affects exposure time, when used in
combination with X-Mind Unity X-Ray generator, the SOPIX Inside and SOPIX2 Inside A.C.E feature is an automatic exposure control
technology.
