1 Introduction
1.1 CRANEX™ 3D
CRANEX 3D is a dental X-ray system for producing high
quality digital images of dentition, TM-joints and skull. In
order to take images with CRANEX 3D, you need a
suitable PC hardware connected to the CRANEX 3D unit
and SCANORA™ software to capture and manage
images.
CRANEX 3D performs the following procedures:
Panoramic
• Adult panoramic
• Sectional panoramic
• Child panoramic (Reduced width and height)
• Bitewing
• TMJ, PA projection
• TMJ, lateral projection (axially corrected)
• Maxillary sinus
Cephalometric (optional)
• Cephalometric Full size Lateral
• Cephalometric Reduced size lateral
• Cephalometric PA/AP projection
• Reverse Towne projection
• Waters view
• Carpus program (optional)
(Not available in USA and Canada)
3D H x W (optional)
• XS 61x41 mm Field of View
• Midi 61x78 mm Field of View
NOTICE! The FOV heights are maximum values measured
at the center of the FOV, the measured height at the edges
of the FOV are smaller.

1.2 Intended use
The unit is intended for dental radiographic examination of
teeth, jaw and TMJ areas by producing conventional 2D x-
ray images as well as x-ray projection images of an
examined volume for the reconstruction of a 3D view.
The unit is also intended for carpus imaging in assisting
cephalometric analyses (Not in USA).
CAUTION! USA only: Federal law restricts this device to
sale by or on the order of a dentist or other qualified
professional.
1.3 Intended user profile
Only for professionally qualified dental / medical personnel.
Typical user is a dental assistant with specific training for
using dental x-ray units.
