ROTOGRAPH-D has been designed to perform the following
examinations:
•
Panoramic examination
•
"SINUS" examination of the paranasal sinus
•
Examination of the Temporo-Mandibular Joints (TMJ) with open or
closed mouth on a single image
All the allowed examination may be made with different parameters
according to the setting of the remote-control (please refer to the specific
chapter of this manual).
ROTOGRAPH-D is controlled by a soft touch console and equipped with
an alphanumeric digital display for a clear indication of the working
parameters and operative messages. The operative cycle is entirely run
by a microprocessor, controlling its different modes : from programming
of the emission parameters according to the chosen examination and the
patient's size, to the voltage fluctuation and to the notification of possible
anomalies, failures or errors.
The excellent quality radiographs thus obtained is the result of a clever
design based upon the pseudo-elliptic rotation system, the original light
beam-luminous cross pattern centering system and most of all the small
dimension of the focal spot, in addition obvioulsy to the digital qualityof
the solid state RX sensor.
This particular rotation system allows an orthogonal imaging of all teeth
and wide image layer with an optimum focused zone of 10 mm for the
incisors and 20 mm for the molars.
ROTOGRAPH-D, besides operating in the programmed mode, can also
operate in the manual personalized mode by modification of the
parameters, as described in chapter 6.
In the Panoramic and TMJ modes, with all interlock enabled, it is
possible to activate the TEST push button (
31
) (see Figure 8 at the end of
the manual).
The TEST functioning mode allows the operator to check the
functionality of the selected examination cycle or to show to the patient
the examination he will undergo (including all movements of the
machine) without emitting X-rays.
The TEST push button as X-RAY button are a "dead man" buttons,
which means thus if they are released during the examination cycle, the
latter is interrupted stopping the movements in progress. To re-start the
cycle first reset the unit by means of the key
32
(Figure 8), than start
again the function which was interrupted.
