The X-ray unit uses cone beam computed tomography to
produce three-dimensional X-ray images. If the X-ray unit
has a ProFace sensor, you can take a 3D photo of the
patient’s face.
The X-ray images can be used to examine:
• Dentomaxillofacial area
• Regions around ear, nose and throat
• Other cranial anatomies
The 3D face photo can be used for patient education or in
order to follow the results of medical treatments.
You need a PC with the Planmeca Romexis program in

Make sure that you are fully acquainted with the
appropriate radiation protection measures and these
instructions before you use the X-ray unit.
