ProMax 3D Max

Xograph’s Planmeca ProMax 3D Max, a dedicated 3D imaging device, produces all the volume sizes required when diagnosing the maxillofacial region: a suitable volume size is available from the smallest special cases to whole head images. The unit is a CBCT* unit and it is based on the Planmeca Promax platform utilising SCARA* technology. ProMax 3D Max unit is delivered with the Romexis imaging software.

With the ProMax 3D Max, imaging any region of interest in the maxillofacial region is effortless, as the volume sizes include everything from full maxillofacial image sixe (230 x 260 mm) to the smallest size (50 x 55 mm) intended for single-tooth imaging.

The direct deposit Csl semiconductor flat panel produces accurate, distortion-free images for 3D reconstruction. Unlike image intensifier sensors that use old vacuum tube technology and multi-step focusing, flat panels use single step image readouts with no geometric distortion, no loss of sensitivity and therefore no need for frequent calibration.

Small Radiation Dose

Planmeca ProMax 3D Max utilises CBCT technology. It uses a cone shaped beam to scan the entire region of interest in a single scan of 200 degrees, as opposed to a medical CT that takes multiple axial slices in multiple full circle scans. During the scan, each volume is made by pulsing the X-ray tube instead of a continuous beam, not only does this reduce the patient dose but it also reduces rotational distortions. The total scanning time is 18 - 26 seconds, but the actual exposure time can be as short as 3 seconds.
