Imaging Sciences launches Tru-Pan for i-CAT

Imaging Sciences International has introduced the Tru-Pan software for its i-CAT cone-beam CT system. Developed to meet the needs of dental professionals who require quick and easy pan creation from existing 3D scans, Tru-Pan delivers anatomically accurate panoramic images with optimal clarity and detail plus time savings over traditional arch detection methods found in other 3D imaging programs, according to the company.

Tru-Pan's reconstruction of unique anatomic landmarks automatically creates a custom, optimized focal trough specific to each patient, the company said. This focal trough detection reveals a new level of detail that delivers consistent views of root tips and crowns, including the incisor regions, and sinuses, all within one panoramic image.

The panoramic images are created with a single mouse click. The automatic custom focal arch detection works in conjunction with the patient's 3D data to extrapolate "true" and precise panoramic views, according to Imaging Sciences.

"Tru-Pan represents our commitment to creating cutting-edge tools that not only raise the level of diagnostics and treatment planning, but also streamline clinical procedures thereby improving efficiency for dental teams," said Chuck Ravetto, vice president of marketing for Imaging Sciences, in a press release.
