4.3 Panoramic Automatic Dose Control (ADC)
The unit allows to take panoramic exposures with Automatic Dose Control (P1 through
P5).
The software will monitor the amount of radiation the sensor is receiving and
automatically sets the exposure factors for proper dose. After the exposure the adjusted
values are shown on the display.
The ADC will stay engaged with all the panoramic procedures (P1 through P5) unless set
to manual mode. Any of sectional panoramic programs cannot utilize ADC.
Exposure value ranges used in ADC mode are:
● Voltage: 57 – 90 kV
● Current: 3.2 – 16 mA
The signal to noise ratio can be adjusted while keeping ADC engaged. Adjustment is
done from the GUI.
