## Intended Use

The Cranex Novus dental panoramic equipment is indicated for dental radiographic examinations by producing digital radiographs of dentition, TM-joints and other oral structures.

## Device Story

Cranex Novus is a digital panoramic extraoral dental X-ray system. It captures X-ray signals using a CCD digital image receptor to produce digital radiographs of dentition, TM-joints, and oral structures. The system operates at 60 kVp or 70 kVp and 7 mA DC with a maximum exposure time of 9 seconds. Used in dental clinical settings by trained professionals, the device provides diagnostic images that assist clinicians in evaluating oral health and planning dental treatments. The digital output allows for immediate visualization and storage of patient anatomy, facilitating clinical decision-making.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification and validation testing were performed to confirm the device corresponds with its intended use.

## Technological Characteristics

Extraoral digital X-ray system; CCD digital image receptor; 60/70 kVp, 7 mA DC energy source; panoramic imaging geometry.

## Regulatory Identification

An extraoral source x-ray system is an AC-powered device that produces x-rays and is intended for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of diseases of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures. The x-ray source (a tube) is located outside the mouth. This generic type of device may include patient and equipment supports and component parts.
