NewTom VG

Vertical Patient CBCT Scanner

  • The NewTom VG represents the newest in CBCT technology from the company that invented cone beam scanning
  • Its small footprint and flexible seating make the NewTom VG the practical choice for offices where space is at a premium.
  • The NewTom VG’s revolutionary flat panel x-ray detector technology, coupled with its very small focal spot, produces the clearest, sharpest images possible
  • The NewTom VG features faster image reconstruction, which translates into less down time for the dental team.
  • The NewTom VG features a single computer terminal and economical data storage.
  • The NewTom VG features a single 8"x10" Field Of View, which is the most utilized by implantologists and maxillo-facial surgeons. The 8"x10" Field Of View, coupled with the very small focal spot of the NewTom VG means high quality images, great accuracy.
  • The NewTom VG has a very low exposure. With much less radiation than most other cone-beam systems, and up to 20 - 50 times less radiation than conventional CT, the NewTom VG scanner uses a unique “pulse” system that unlike other systems, activates the x-ray source only when needed—delivering less than 4 seconds of total exposure for a full scan.
  • With the NewTom VG’s exclusive Safe Beam technology, the radiation level is set automatically through the evaluation of the patient’s anatomical density. A small child will receive up to 40% less radiation than the already very low level for a full-sized adult. Safe Beam technology automatically and continuously monitors system operations eliminating the possibility of incorrect exposures
