KaVo ProXam 3DQ & 3DQ Pro

For a variety of 3D diagnostic options.

The KaVo ProXam 3DQ X-ray unit is a premium product in the KaVo imaging portfolio and combines all the qualities of extraoral KaVo ProXam 3D and 2D imaging with an even greater volume. With additional, preconfigured programmes, the KaVo ProXam 3DQ offers even more diagnostic possibilities and a large number of ENT applications. The existing 3DQ will be renamed 3DQ Pro from March 2025.

ProXam 3DQ - Minimum radiation dose, maximum quality.

Diagnostically impressive 3D imaging at the highest level – that is the claim of the KaVo ProXam 3D X-ray portfolio. The two KaVo 3D X-ray units – KaVo ProXam 3D and KaVo ProXam 3DQ – offer modern, three-dimensional maxillofacial imaging at the highest level, and include numerous supplementary 2D programmes. Based on extremely small voxel sizes, the KaVo 3D X-ray units generate high-resolution and detailed DVT images of compelling quality, even with a reduced radiation dose. The KaVo ProXam 3D series units, in combination with the all-in-one Romexis software, offer everything you need for an efficient, smart X-ray workflow. That means a safe investment, and a process-optimised digital future.

Ease of use is a top priority.

A KaVo ProXam 3D X-ray unit can be controlled and operated in two ways: either via the swivelling touch display panel on the unit or remotely through the desktop software on a PC. In addition to the cleverly designed graphic ProXam 3D | 3DQ interface, the touch display also impresses users thanks to simple and quick programme selection and preset exposure values for a wide variety of imaging types. The step-by-step instructions, which guide users through the entire X-ray workflow, are an added bonus.

2D and 3D imaging with just one sensor.

With the intelligent SmartPan™ imaging system, the 3D sensors can be used for all 2D images. This eliminates the need for a time-consuming sensor change between DVT and panorama imaging.

Scout images help verify volume positioning.

Before the actual 3D image, two 2D images can be created laterally and posterior/anteriorly. This helps prevent unnecessary 3D images and minimises the radiation dose for the patient.

Appropriate recording modes for a variety of indications.

Depending on the clinical situation, the tailor-made recording modes of both KaVo ProXam 3D units provide accurate presets, enabling the best possible image quality with the lowest possible radiation dose.

• In the Ultra Low Dose mode, each X-ray image is created with the minimum radiation dose possible. Ideal for paedodontic dentistry, orthodontics and sinus applications (voxel size 400 or 600 µm).
• The normal standard mode is the choice for all standard X-ray examinations (voxel size 200 µm).
• The High Definition or HD mode is ideal for recording extremely fine structures such as fractures (voxel size 150 µm).
• The HiRes (High Resolution) mode provides particularly high-resolution images (voxel size 100 µm).
• The endodontics mode offers the maximum resolution (voxel size 75 µm).

Suitable for all patients.

The open architecture of the KaVo ProXam 3D X-ray units and their spacious, vertical range of motion make it easy to position children, very tall patients, or wheelchair users. The robot-controlled SCARA (Selectively Compliant Articulated Robot Arm) technology with 3-joint arm enables high-precision movements for anatomically correct image geometry. This allows the C-arm to be fully extended, ensuring easy entry from the side. The open face-to-face positioning gives anxious patients, for example, the sense of security they need. For better visualisation and to support patient positioning, this is shown on the touch display. The integrated quadruple laser system is available for correct patient placement.

KaVo ProFace

KaVo ProFace offers an innovative way to capture a realistic 3D facial photo and a CBCT image in a single scan. Alternatively, it can be used simply to create a 3D facial photo – without exposing the patient to radiation. This integrated technology is compatible with all KaVo 3D imaging units. With Ultra Low Dose to High Performance.

Same image quality, less radiation.

With the Ultra Low Dose imaging protocol, the KaVo ProXam 3D units offer high-quality DVT images with a radiation dose that is lower than with conventional 2D panoramic images. The effective radiation dose per patient can be reduced by an average of 77% in Ultra Low Dose mode – without any loss of image quality (Study of Orthodontic Diagnostic FOVs Using Low Dose CBCT protocol (Ludlow, John Barrett and Koivisto, Juha). Based on special 3D algorithms, the Ultra Low Dose mode can be used with all voxel sizes and in all programmes – up to and including Endo mode. For a variety of indications, exposures in Ultra Low Dose mode are particularly suited for the following indications: Implant planning Postoperative follow-up after maxillofacial interventions Examination of the airways and sinuses

• for determination of the apical bone supply
• for locating non-erupted or impacted teeth
• for defining reference points for cephalometric analysis

CALM mode: For automatic correction of motion artefacts.

• Iterative algorithm for automatic correction of motion artefacts.
• Ideal for longer scan times and imaging of restless patients, especially children or older patients.
• Minimal time and radiation dose through the elimination of additional repeat exposures.

ARA mode: Outstanding image results without metal artefacts.

• Reliable algorithm for artefact-free recordings
• Automatically removes shadows and strips that can be caused by metal restorations or root fillings.
• Scientifically proven, tried and tested in practice

AINO mode: For reliable noise reduction.

• Noise-free images without any loss of valuable details
• Enables the lowest dose of radiation
• Optimum image quality through the use of small voxel sizes, for example in endodontics mode
• When using Ultra Low Dose mode, AINO is enabled by default.
