Panoura 18S

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.
