PLANMED presents an improved PLANTMED Verity® CBCT scanner, the only 3D imaging solution for orthopedics and head and neck imaging. The scanner is now reported to provide enhanced image quality, new options for head and neck imaging, the Planmeca Ultra Low DoseTM imaging protocol for lower patient doses, and the Planmeca CALMTM algorithm for motion artifact correction .
New head and neck imaging options with excellent image quality
The Image Quality® in Adaptability and Mobile PLANTED Verity has been reportedly enhanced to meet all imaging needs. It is said that the high quality images of Planmed Verity can visually display the smallest skeletal structure with minimal interference. It has been reported that this superior image quality, combined with new patient and volume positioning options, allows for more precise acquisition of images of the head and neck area than ever before. Planmed Verity covers ENT imaging and basic 3D dental imaging needs.
“We are pleased to further improve the Planmed Verity and its maxillofacial and ENT imaging options. This is what our customers demanded and we are happy to respond to this need,” said Jan Moed, managing director of Planmed. “This unit is now more versatile than ever. It is an easy-to-use, cost-effective solution that makes them ideal dental supplies for any imaging center, clinic or hospital.”
New algorithm solves the challenge of sports artifacts
Planmed Verity now offers groundbreaking Planmeca CALMTM motion artifact correction. According to reports, the Planmeca CALM algorithm eliminates the need for reacquisition by eliminating the effects of patient movement, which makes it very good for imaging more active patients. According to reports, this function not only saves clinicians time, it also prevents patients from receiving unnecessary doses.
Reduce Patient Dose with Planmeca Ultra Low DoseTM
Planmed Verity scanners now use the innovative Planmeca Ultra Low Dose (ULD) imaging protocol. The Planmeca ULD is designed to combine clinical image quality with an extremely low effective patient dose so that the dose of 3D imaging approaches standard 2D imaging. The agreement is said to reduce the effective patient dose of the Planmed Verity scanner by 50% without affecting the diagnostic image quality. According to reports, new volume positioning possibilities can improve the accuracy of the imaging area and reduce the amount of radiation the patient is exposed to.
“The new innovative features such as Planmeca CALM and Planmeca ULD are examples of the results of our in-depth collaboration with parent company Planmeca,” said Moed. “I am very excited to see the heights that our unique Planmed Verity scanner can achieve. The world of medical imaging” .
These dental equipment new features are now available in other countries in the European Economic Area where the European Union and CE mark apply.
