DEXIS
Indications for Use
The DEXIS sensor is a USB-driven digital sensor which is intended to acquire
dental intraoral radiographic images. The DEXIS sensor shall be operated by
healthcare professionals, who are educated and competent to perform the
acquisition of dental intra-oral radiographs. The DEXIS sensor can be used
either in combination with special positioning devices to facilitate positioning
and alignment with the X-ray beam or it may also be positioned by hand with
the assistance of the patient.
WARNING
Some components of the DEXIS Sensor may have the presence of
Nickel greater than 0.1% by article weight. Contact may result in an
allergic reaction due to Nickel sensitivity. Use of a sheath that covers
the sensor positioning system may reduce the risk of exposure to the
patient. Use of gloves while handling the alignment bar may reduce
the risk of exposure to the operator.
Exposure to nickel may possibly cause cancer. Use of a sheath that
covers the sensor positioning system may reduce the risk of
exposure to the patient. Use of gloves while handling the alignment
bar may reduce the risk of exposure to the operator.
WARNING
Take the necessary steps to protect yourself from radiation. For
proper operator positioning, refer to the 'Instructions for Use' of your
intraoral X-ray equipment.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should the dental professional hold the
sensor by hand during the X-ray exposure.
Product Description
The DEXIS Sensor is an indirect converting x-ray detector, e.g. incident X-rays
are converted by a scintillating material into (visible) light, this light is coupled
optically to a light detection imager based on CMOS technology.
The design of the sensor assembly supports the automatic detection of the
incident x-rays to generate digital images for dental intra oral applications.
