Planmeca Viso
The new Planmeca Viso imaging system, which includes 2D, 3D and optional cephalometric modalities, offers improved patient positioning, simpler field-of-view adjustments, high image quality and intelligent patient-movement correction. 
Patient positioning is done directly from the system’s control panel utilizing integrated cameras and a live video view. The operator can see the patient live from the control panel screen for flexible and exact positioning. This also allows users to do field-of-view adjustments directly from the control panel. 
Another feature, Planmeca CALM (correction algorithm for latent movement), analyzes and compensates for slight movements during a scan to provide improved diagnostic images and reduce the number of retakes. The Viso’s new imaging arm design also provides increased patient space and shorter acquisition times.
