Planmeca will provide a Planmeca Compact idental care unit and Planmed Verity extremity scanner for the onsite emergency room for the Ice Hockey World Championship 2012 in Helsinki, Finland.
The Planmeca Compact idental unit is designed to support the workflow of the whole dental team. The full digital unit is ergonomic for the dentist and convenient for the patient, while conforming to safety and infection control regulations. At the Ice Hockey World Championships, the dental unit will help in diagnosing dental injuries and giving first-aid treatment.
The Planmed Verity extremity scanner is a new approach to orthopedic imaging that helps to detect the often missed fractures in the extremities, according to a press release. The scanner acquires a 3D image with a lower radiation dose than traditional CTs, and its anatomy-specific design offers weight-bearing imaging.
