Experience the exceptional

Our growing Planmeca Viso product
™
family of next generation imaging units
has a new member. Combining innovative
patient positioning, fantastic usability
and outstanding image quality, the new
™
Planmeca Viso G5 provides a cutting-
edge CBCT imaging experience.

From 2D imaging to the most demanding requirements
for maxillofacial diagnostics, the new Planmeca Viso G5
CBCT unit offers outstanding features for all users and
purposes. It is an ideal addition to the Planmeca Viso
family and perfectly complements the full skull imaging
unit Planmeca Viso™ G7, which was introduced in 2017
at the International Dental Show in Cologne, Germany.
Patient positioning is done directly from the unit’s
control panel utilising integrated cameras and a live
video view. The operator of the unit can see the patient
live from the screen for ultimate easiness and precision.
The unit also supports intelligent FOV adjustments,
as the volume can be placed freely and its exact
size selected flexibly – anywhere between
3x3 and 20x17 cm.
As is the case with all our CBCT units, Planmeca
Viso G5 is capable of capturing CBCT images at an
even lower dose than standard 2D images thanks to
the proprietary Planmeca Ultra Low Dose™ imaging
protocol. The unit also offers features for removing noise
and metal artefacts from CBCT images.
Planmeca Viso G5’s imaging arm provides ample
space for patients, but short image acquisition times do
not leave much time for them to move – reducing the
number of movement artefacts. When they do occur,
the ground-breaking Planmeca CALM™ algorithm
efficiently corrects these artefacts from images.
The unit’s 120 kV tube voltage option supports
optimised quality for challenging imaging cases,
as it ensures higher contrast images and also
reduces artefacts.
“The most capable X-ray imaging platform just
became more accessible,” comments Timo Müller,
Vice President of Planmeca’s X-ray division. “We are very
excited about making the Planmeca Viso experience
available to a wider community of imaging enthusiasts
– offering the same great features and benefits to all.” ◢
