Time Savings
The NOMAD Pro color LCD screen, simple touch controls, and handheld design saves time.
• Handheld design allows operator to stay with the patient, thereby reducing time required for X-ray procedures
• Quickly adjust exposure time with simple controls
• Ability to save custom exposure settings for fast recall
• Icons quickly identify tooth, receptor, and patient type
Clear Images
The NOMAD Pro produces the highest quality images.
• No blur from hand movement
• 0.4 mm focal spot produces sharp, high resolution images
• High-frequency, 60kV DC X-ray generator produces clear images while reducing patient dose
Long Battery Life
Hundreds of images can be obtained from one battery charge. The battery is incorporated into
the handle, which is easily removed for charging. A battery icon on the LCD screen displays current
battery levels and indicates when it needs to be charged. The NOMAD Pro system comes with two
battery handles and a charging cradle to always ensure a charged battery.

NOMAD Pro
Traditional wall-mounted x-rays can generate a substantial amount of stray radiation when fired. Backscatter off the patient's teeth can reflect back at the operator or through other parts of the patient. Because of this, x-ray generators are usually operated remotely, and lead aprons and/or thyroid shields are often used to protect the patient.
However, NOMAD Pro is designed with safety in mind. The external backscatter shield and internal radiation shielding are specially designed to protect the operator from radiation exposure. In fact, the exposure from using NOMAD Pro is less than 1% of allowed occupational doses. NOMAD Pro is safe!
How does it work?
As mentioned, NOMAD Pro employs an external backscatter shield to protect the operator from reflected radiation. This shield produces a cone-shaped protection zone extending behind it. At the position where the operator stands, the zone has a diameter of over 6 feet, enough to protect the operator's entire body.
In addition, radiation shielding inside NOMAD Pro ensures that leakage from the x-ray source itself is virtually eliminated, protecting the operator's hands and other areas close to the device.
How much exposure is too much?
Radiation is all around us, all the time. It varies with your lifestyle and where you live. Click here to find out how much exposure you receive in everyday living.
The average dose per person from all sources is about 360 mrems per year. International Standards allow exposure to as much as 5,000 mrems a year for those who work with and around radioactive material. You can see how NOMAD, even with heavy use, provides minimal exposure for the operator. |
