Description

Planmed Verity® provides high-resolution 3D images for extremities and maxillofacial areas at low dose using the Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) technology.

The overall Verity look and compact design can be used as mobile unit or stand alone. It can easily fit in any existing x-ray room or side by side with other portable imaging devices.

CBCT technology provides up to 10 times lower radiation dose compared to conventional Medical Device CT scanner. Scattered radiation is significantly low with the use of 1 mm Pb equivalent shielding is recommended. Planmed Verity extremity scanner can also be equipped with an integrated radiation shield to protect the patient during the scan and it comes with a joystick to control gantry height and tilt, an integrated workstation and easily accessible positioning with laser light.

Planmed also focused on saving patients unnecessary extra radiation via eliminating the affect of patient movement using Planmeca CALM™ (Correction Algorithm for Lateral Movement), which makes it excellent for imaging. The Planmed Verity® scanner can now be used with this revolutionary algorithm and it will save time for clinicians. Planmed CALM can be applied either before or after image capture. This ensures that volumes are automatically corrected before they can be transferred for permanent archiving.

 

Clinical Practice

Maxillofacial Imaging with Planmed Verity®

Maxillofacial imaging option of Planmed Verity® provides wider applications with a single imaging system. Jaw, teeth, maxillofacial area, sinuses, temporomandibular joints (TMJ), orbits and airways can now be easily studied.

The below clinical images illustrate the versatility of Planmed Verity. 3D images with isotropic voxels enable analysis of even most complex situations where traditional imaging is not sufficient. Data can be presented in Multi Planar Reconstruction (MPR) view and also 3D rendered format, which can be used for example in surgery planning.
