    It is highly recommended to use the FS Ergo sensor holders because they are designed to protect the sensor. If you choose to NOT use an FS Ergo sensor holder, you must protect the sensor and the cable.
  • Page 28: Image Quality Assurance

    It is recommended to use a dental phantom for a periodic (at least annual) assessment of the image quality by performing a side-by-side comparison of an initial dental phantom image to a current dental phantom image to ensure that the images have sufficient quality for diagnostic purposes in your application. FS Ergo Sensor...
  • Page 29 Dental phantom images should be acquired with fixed settings for X-ray dose (kV, mA, distance), and a fixed and reproducible alignment of the X-ray source and the dental phantom to the FS Ergo sensor. NOTICE! Contact technical support for recommendations about commercially available dental phantoms.
