What’s Unique About the Image Quality?
1. 16 Bit Sensor: Highest contrast resolution capability on the market
2. Direct Conversion Sensor: Avoids Image defocusing that can occur with additional signal conversions
3. Multi-Focal Plane Position Correction: Avoids further resolution degradation that can happen from poor positioning

Many Platforms use lower-cost sensor that requires double conversion (x-ray to light, light to digital)
Panoura performs direct conversion (x-ray to digital)
Higher precision and higher speed
3. Multi-Focal Plane Position Correction
• Resolution is affected by how well the patient’s arch aligns with the focal plane
• The Panoura captures data at many focal planes and selects the optimal layer
• Panoramic x-ray units that do not have this capability are limited to a single focal plane
Like a professional photographer that takes 500
shots to get the one good picture, Panoura Position Correction takes stacks of focal planes so that it can
choose the best one.
