according to the selected patient size and image
resolution.
• Low dose: Lower exposure values and reduced patient
radiation dose (typical voxel size 0.40 mm)
• Normal resolution: Suitable for most targets (typical
voxel size 0.20 mm)
• High definition: Better image quality for small targets,
e.g. ear bones (typical voxel size 0.15 mm)
• High resolution: Sharp images (typical voxel size 0.10
mm)
• Endodontic: Very sharp images for endodontic
applications and other small targets, e.g. ear bones
(typical voxel size 0.075 mm)
patient.
The exposure values have been preset at the factory for
each patient size and image resolution. The preset
exposure values are average values and they are only
meant to guide the user.
