DenOptix QST ... quick switch to digital imaging! Quad-speed technology is a new technology developed by Gendex for the DenOptix storage phosphor plate system that increases speed and flexibility and makes digital imaging as easy as x-ray film. The high image reading speed and the availability of the storage phosphor plates for all dental image formats makes DenOptix QST the ideal and most economic solution for the complete digitalisation of dental radiographic systems. Gendex GXS-700. The Vision To Advance Your Quality Of Care. Meet the latest advancement in Digital Intraoral Sensors!  Introducing the GXS-700, designed to make migrating from film, or upgrading a digital system, easier than ever. As the eighth generation digital sensor from Gendex, the GXS-700 system comes from a strong lineage of imaging excellence, raising the performance bar for other digital sensors. From ease-of-use and portability, to enhanced acuity and sustainability, these new sensors underscore our desire and commitment to help advance your practice with innovative and affordable solutions. Flexible, comfortable, cable-less The Optix storage phosphor plates are flexible, thin and cable-less. They are positioned like conventional intraoral films and combine digital quality with maximum comfort for the patient. Easy to use The introduction to digital imaging is extremely easy: The storage phosphor plates are used like intraoral films and do not require any special training. Economical Keep your existing x-ray equipment and add the value of the diagnostic quality of digital technology; what could be more economical? For additional information, click: Storage plate technology Features High Quality Image Capture Advanced CMOS sensor technology enhances image quality, elevating technical and diagnostic capabilities High-performance sensor captures high resolution images, providing more than 20 visible line pairs per millimeter Working within a wide dynamic range of x-ray exposure settings provides consistent image quality and repeatable results Two Ergonomically Designed Sensor Sizes Size 1 and Size 2 accommodate children and adults Rounded corners and smooth edge finishes comfortably fit the anatomical shape of the oral cavity Durable materials and components increase the life span of the product Direct USB Connectivity Ultra-portable sensors with Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity No need for USB controllers, adapters, or docking stations Low power consumption Maximum productivity The scanning speed is at the top of the market standard It only takes four seconds per image to scan a full-mouth Four bite-wing images in less than 30 seconds The DenOptix QST reads the storage phosphor plates at high speed, and converts the obtained images into a digital format in just a few seconds. The information allows for quicker and easier diagnosis. The reduced time loading the storage phosphor plates and individual scanning function for intraoral and panoramic films increases productivity and shortens waiting time. With the DenOptix QST, all the tasks and time associated with processing x-ray films are no more. Time that you can now give your patients. High Definition Radiography Utilizing the latest sensor technology, the GXS-700 system delivers real-time images of truly amazing clarity and detail – greatly supporting diagnosis and treatment. The Workflow Wonder Known for improving the clinical lives of dentists, Gendex engineered the GXS-700 for smooth integration into practice management systems. This creates more time for patient contact and additional appointments. The GXS-700 can be conveniently carried to wherever it is needed, from operatory to operatory, for fast, proficient service. Its unique “Always Ready” feature automatically recognizes the presence of radiation and starts image acquisition without initiating the capture through software or hardware interfaces. With its fast Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connection, you’ll save time every day, no matter the type of appointment. Digital images appear instantly, providing clinicians with immediate feedback. In an emergency, valuable time is not wasted waiting for film to develop, allowing you to quickly attend to your patient. Comprehensive flexibility Phosphore storage plates are available in all dental formats: intraoral, panoramic and teleradiographic. With the DenOptix QST, you can keep your existing x-ray machines and increase their value. Switching to digital technology is easy: Merely replace the x-ray film with storage phosphor plate. Quickly convert to digital imaging with minimum training. No expensive retrofitting of existing x-ray systems is required to introduce the DenOptix QST in the dental office; instead, their value is enhanced! The usual imaging procedures remain unchanged. The DenOptix QST offers optimal digital image quality with faster availability, and its outstanding flexibility makes it perfectly adaptable to every demand, enhancing and optimising the x-ray system of every dental practice. GXS-700 Size 1 – Perfect for Pedo Our engineers developed the GXS-700 Size 1 Pedo sensor to be closest in size to the most used x-ray film on children. Maximum reliability The DenOptix QST represents the fourth generation of scanner systems for storage phosphor plates developed by Gendex. The DenOptix QST offers you the immediate exceptional advantages of digital imaging. It represents investment security that has been tested and confirmed by more that 6000 dentists around the world. Over the course of its history, Gendex has repeatedly made its mark as a leading company in the development and marketing of innovative and reliable digital radiographic products and is a major presence in modern dentistry. How To Treat Your Toughest Patients The apprehension of your youngest patients is sure to quickly disappear once they experience the speed and comfort of the GXS-700 Size 1 Sensor — designed specifically for Pedodontists. With dimensions similar to Size 1 film, its ergonomic design with rounded corners and smooth edge finishes, the GXS-700 helps children gain a more positive x-ray experience. Gendex cares about positive experience and what’s important to dentists and their patients. Today, more and more offices are implementing “green” practices. With this in mind, we have incorporated many eco-friendly and sustainable features into the GXS-700 sensor design. When compared to traditional film radiographs, the GXS-700 system can significantly reduce patient exposure to radiation and eliminates the need for working with film processing chemicals.
