X-RAY SYSTEM INTRODUCTION

2.1. FUNCTIONS AND PERFORMANCE
The Sopix² medical device is a digital dental x-ray imaging system. The sensor (located in the patient's mouth
just like a silver film) captures, thanks to the CMOS sensor, the X-rays produced by the generator. Then, it will
transmit this data to the control box to which it is connected and, in turn, transmits the information to the
computer to display the x-ray onto the screen.
All the images captured with the Sopix² system can be recalled onto the screen with the Sopro Imaging software
provided with the system. This software displays, processes, and stores the images captured with the Sopix²
system.
Exclusive technology A.C.E™ (Automatic Control Exposure), developed by SOPRO, provides the system with
prominent functionalities. Thus, Sopix² analyzes radiation in real time upon every acquisition, thus avoiding any
risk of overexposure.
