Product description
VisualiX is a direct (lmless) digital X-ray imaging system, conceived specically for
dental radiography in the oral cavity. The system captures X-ray images and makes
them available for display on a Personal Computer (PC) screen.
An X-ray image sensor (CCD) is positioned in the patient’s mouth just like intra-oral lm.
The sensor may be inserted in a special positioning device to facilitate positioning and
alignment with the X-ray beam. The sensor may also be positioned by hand with the
assistance of the patient.
There is no electrical or physical connection between VisualiX and the X-ray generator.
Images are automatically acquired when X-rays are present in a dose which is percep-
tible to the sensor.
Digital X-ray images are quickly displayed on the screen. Images can be optimized for
viewing via imaging software, stored as image les, and printed out on a suitable printer
if desired. VixWin is one example of a dedicated software that employs a number of
utilities for optimizing viewing and printing of images.
VisualiX must be connected to a PC running on a Microsoft® Windows® operating system
through the standard USB port (Universal Serial Bus). See the “System Conguration”
paragraph for details.
eHD Technology
eHD is the acronym of “Ergonomics and High Denition”: the latest, unsurpassed tech-
nology in real-time X-ray imaging, which allows enhanced analysis of radiographic
details using a highly ergonomic system characterised by round corners to facilitate
positioning in the oral cavity.
eHD sensors can be identied by the eHD logo shown below which appears on the top
of the sensor and Intermediate Electronics (IME) box.
