What Are the Key Features of the Canon XRD Dental Portable X-Ray - RAY98(P) VET?
Canon XRD Dental notes the following features on this model:
High-frequency technology. Speaking generally about high-frequency technology, this means that a generator produces a beam with a fast waveform and high penetration power, for consistent, high-quality images. Thanks to the narrowing of the x-ray beam spectrum and the ability to use shorter exposure times, high frequency can also mean a lower dose of radiation to patients (and potentially, staff) and less chance of motion artifact. The technology also allows for smaller, more compact machines.
Portability. Veterinarians and practice managers must decide which type of generator works best for their hospital’s needs. There are cart, wall-mounted, and portable options. Cart and wall-mounted generators offer the advantages of putting more space between the unit and the operator, no risk of running out of battery life, and no need for the unit to be handheld (and thus no arm fatigue/shake, and no risk of damaging the unit by dropping it). Portable units may be preferred in practices with limited space, or in mobile practices. Some clinics may even have more than one type of generator.
Long battery life. The company doesn’t cite the number of hours the battery is expected to last but does claim that the machine can produce hundreds of exposures with one charge. An automatic shutoff after eight minutes of inactivity helps to conserve battery life.
Compact size for ease of use. XRD dental specifies that the generator weighs just 3.75 pounds and can be operated with one hand.
Compatibility with other components. The RAY98(P) is compatible with film, PSP plates, and digital sensors.
Technical specifications are as follows for the RAY98(P) portable vet dental x-ray generator:
