1 VisualiX ehd Ergonomics and High Definition Intraoral Sensor The most comfortable intraoral sensor

2 VisualiX ehd Gendex, loyal to its long tradition of providing the dentist with superior X-ray imaging equipment, proudly presents Visualix ehd, the latest development in the field of digital intraoral imaging. VisualiX ehd (Ergonomics and High Definition) combines advanced digital intraoral sensor technology with outstanding ergonomic shape, making it the only system that guarantees both unsurpassed diagnostic image quality and maximum patient comfort. Instant acquisition of high quality and accurate digital images with maximum patient comfort!

3 VisualiX ehd Sensor technology VisualiX ehd is a digital sensor based on the CCD technology guaranteeing high image quality and system reliability. VisualiX ehd is USB2 compatible, thus minimizing the time from image acquisition to image appearance on the computer screen. It is designed with a Caesium Iodide scintillator, grown vertically on a carbon layer. The vertical growth process generates a columnar microstructure which drives light directly on the CCD surface, reducing loss and providing an unsurpassed image quality. In addition, the pixel size has been reduced to 19.5 µm providing a theoretical resolution of roughly 26 lp/mm.

4 Diagnostic quality Endodontics The ergonomic shape of VisualiX ehd permits easy and simple positioning of the sensor in cases where space is limited. This benefit combined with excellent image quality, allows accurate visualization of endodontic detail and guarantees real time monitoring of treatment progress. Implantology The high definition images obtained using VisualiX ehd are vital in order to correctly assess the level of integration between the implant and the surrounding bone structure. Periapical/Occlusal The ergonomic shape of VisualiX ehd guarantees maximum patient comfort and permits correct positioning at the most distal parts of the oral cavity. This allows correct visualisation of the periapical area and the occlusal plane, avoiding image distortions.

5 Optimized workflow The Visualix ehd intraoral sensor system provides you with features that will revolutionize the way you work. Instant image availability Visualix ehd provides real time images, allowing the doctor to carry out the best treatment in those cases where time is critical (endodontics, implantology, other oral surgery). Optimized workflow during image acquisition Visualix ehd's unique auto-trigger function eliminates the need to manually activate the sensor before the exposure. The sensor automatically recognizes the presence of the the X-ray emission and passes the image to the PC. This feature allows the time saved to be used for other critical activities. Bitewing The large active area of VisualiX ehd and the ease of positioning allow the detailed identification of lesions in the interproximal space and can prevent crown superimpositions assuring high quality bitewing images.

6 More time and space available Visualix ehd eliminates the need for film development and liquid disposal, saving a lot of time and effort, allowing you to spend more time with your patients. By eliminating the need for film processing liquids and equipment, Visualix ehd also frees space in the practice. Easy image management Visualix ehd produces digital images that significantly improve the way in which you work. Digital images are easily stored in a PC, eliminating the need for paper records. The images are easily shared for referrals or insurance needs. In addition, with the use of powerful filters provided by the Gendex image analysis software, you can significantly increase the diagnostic quality and value. Seamless integration The small footprint electronics unit and efficient wall mount accessories guarantee seamless integration of the VisualiX ehd system in your practice and maximum system portability. The patient and practice personnel are safeguarded! With Visualix ehd, you can reduce the X-ray dose received by the patient by as much as 90% compared to film, safeguarding the patient as well as the practice staff. In addition, Visualix ehd is the only intraoral sensor in the market certified as a Class II medical device, guaranteeing maximum security for the patient.

7 Easy positioning and high definition imaging VisualiX ehd is a unique system developed to optimize positioning of the intraoral sensor in the oral cavity. Thanks to its special drop-like shape, its smooth edges and round corners, it follows the anatomical shape of the oral cavity, simplifying sensor positioning and maximizing patient comfort. VisualiX ehd also provides unsurpassed digital image quality thanks to the High Definition imaging technology developed by Gendex. The ehd technology optimizes the efficiency of the image capture process and provides excellent definition of the various anatomical details.
