The Panoura 18S and its Direct Conversion Sensor: for Dental Professionals who want to maximize the information from their panoramic x-rays, and DESPISE retakes.

Product Details

What’s so great about a Direct Conversion Sensor?

Most Panoramic CMOS sensors use lower-cost materials that are less sensitive to x-ray. Therefore, these sensors must convert x-ray to light before converting to a digital signal. This can result in image blurriness because the extra conversion step can cause the radiation to “fan out” and inadvertently trigger surrounding pixels. The Panoura 18S utilizes a Direct Conversion (sometimes referred to as “Cadmium Telluride”) sensor that converts x-ray directly to digital, which contributes to a much sharper image.

Every scan captures over 50 different panoramic layers!

With most panoramic x-ray units, the arch of the patient needs to be exactly where the machine wants: along the path where the beam is focused. 

  • If positioning is not precise, a poor image can result.
  • If the patient shifts slightly during the time the operator walks out to initiate the scan, a poor image can result.
  • If the patient’s arch doesn’t match the trajectory of the scan, certain anatomy may not be in focus.  
  • The emergence profile of the anteriors could make it difficult to capture both mandibular and maxillary apices clearly in the panoramic scan.

The Panoura 18S also has Multi-Focal Plane capture capability.  This means that every scan captures many layers both forward and backward.  This creates a wide “envelope” where much more data is captured around where the patient is positioned.

Not only Bitewings, but an entire FMX!

  • Vertical bitewing feature as well as FMX Clipping feature creates 18 intraoral-sized images clipped from the pan with one click.

  • Ideal tool for patients who won’t tolerate traditional PAs

  • Instead of taking 18 individual images with an intraoral X-Ray, they can all be generated at once in 14 seconds.
