The SkyView 3D Panoramic Imager, available from surgery design and equipment specialists Clark Dental, is suitable for any size of practice and has practically no learning curve.

Used for 3D reconstruction of dentition and jaw, the SkyView uses cone beam computed tomography. Its range of features include an intuitive 'wizard' system for error-free use, previews in real time so the user can check positioning, low dosage rates to protect patient wellbeing, a motorised bed to keep patients steady, promoting accurate images, triple axis control for positioning by PC or joystick and the option of left or right-sided scan controls.

Its post-processing feature allows the visualisation of 3D volumes and also lets the user examine transversal slices, measure distances and identify landmarks. With an image intensifier detector and double-field six-inch detector, the SkyView delivers images of unprecedented quality.
