DenOptix QST

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.




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?

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.



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.




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.

PSP (Photostimulable Phosphor) Technology Digital made easy! Practices that want to make the easy and economical step into digital imaging should chose PSP. What are the benefits of PSP?  Value Reduced imaging processing time Ease of Integration Easy to use Flexibility Low risk investment How do ... ... phosphor storage plates work? Each DenOptix phosphor storage plate is provided with a thin crystal layer having light-optical properties and coated with a layer of flexible plastic. These crystals can absorb energy from the x-rays and save its spatial distribution in the form of a picture (see illustration). They operate as "energy traps" and store the energy of the x-rays. The amount of energy saved at each location on the plate is directly proportional to the x-ray dose that illuminated the crystal at that site. The DenOptix-Scanner excites the crystals with red laser light to create a state of instability. The crystals release blue light and return to a stable state. The DenOptix scanner reads the blue light and generates an image with the help of the software. The phosphor storage plates are never completely deleted in this process. Parts of the energy remains in the crystals. This remaining information can be erased by exposing the plate to light. The image quality is normally not influenced by exposure to weak light. After the phosphor plate has been erased, it can be re-exposed, and the procedure can start from the beginning. When handled carefully, the DenOptix phosphor storage plates can be used indefinitely.
