First announced in 2023 with a debut at IDS 2023 in Cologne, Germany, the Planmeca Viso G3 is now available for deliveries through local distributors.
The newest member of the Planmeca Viso portfolio of imaging units, Planmeca Viso G3 offers aims to provide innovative features, usability, and great image quality for user’s CBCT imaging experience. The multifunctional CBCT device covers extraoral imaging needs from 2D to 3D imaging, and is complemented by the Planmeca Romexis dental software, to complete Planmeca’s line of next-generation CBCT units alongside Planmeca Viso G7 and Planmeca Viso G5.
Planmeca Viso G3 brings usability and visibility for an even wider range of clinics and clinical needs, from endodontics to implantology. With a Field of View (FOV) ranging from 3×3 to 20x 10cm, the unit not only offers high-quality 3D images of the entire dentition, but is able to capture detailed panoramic as well as extraoral bitewing images for interproximal diagnostics according to the company. Additionally, the unit can be equipped with the Planmeca ProCeph one-shot cephalostat and upgraded to Planmeca Viso G5 for a larger maximum 3D volume.
The new imaging unit also comes with all the benefits of Planmeca’s Viso technology. This includes imaging programmes, a live video view for successful patient positioning and virtual FOV adjustments, freely adjustable 3D volume size, and anatomical target selection. Additionally, the completely redesigned user interface can be mirrored on the workstation, reducing the need to move back and forth between the workstation and the patient.
In line with the As Low As Diagnostically Acceptable (ALADA) principle, Planmeca Viso G3 also comes with multiple advanced ways of reducing patient doses. These include the scientifically proven Planmeca Ultra Low Dose protocol, which reduces the effective patient dose without a statistical reduction in image quality. Additionally, scout images can be used to fine-tune the 3D volume before acquisition, while the unique Planmeca CALM algorithm for motion artifact correction can be applied both before and after acquisition to reduce the need for retakes, especially when imaging livelier patients.
Combined, these features are designed to come together for a smooth and speedy imaging workflow without compromising safety or patient comfort.
