    The X-ray unit uses panoramic techniques to produce two-dimensional (2D) X-ray images for the examination of dentomaxillofacial anatomy. You need a PC with the Planmeca Romexis program in order to save, view and modify the images. Make sure that you are fully acquainted with the appropriate radiation protection measures and these instructions before you use the X-ray unit.
