In the case of a cephalometric x-ray set which uses direct digital imaging, check the scanning motion of the image receptor with the x-ray tube head and, where applicable, the secondary collimator.Papaya Has the best imaging sensors available By choosing a sensor, which improves the image quality while keeping radiation exposure to a minimum, Genoray has shown that it puts patient’s safety first.

In the case of a panoramic/CBCT x-ray set, check the rotational movement of the x-ray tube head and the fittings.In the case of an intra-oral x-ray set, check the condition and operation of the counter-balanced arm and fittings.Check the condition and operation of the x-ray exposure control.Check the electrical and mechanical safety of the machine and provide an assessment of its condition.Check for any damage to the x-ray tube head.Mark down the operating potential, tube current and filtration values from the tube head.Check serial number of the x-ray tube head.What will our engineer do during a routine radiological test? Testing for panoramic with a cephalometric attachment the cost is £263 +vat and for CBCT x-ray set the cost is £735 +vat. Routine radiological testing for intra-oral (including hand-held x-ray set), panoramic (without cephalometric attachment) and handheld x-ray equipment, the price of an inspection is £158+vat for members. How much do you charge?Įlectro Mechanical Check for intra-oral, panoramic and handheld x-ray equipment, the price of an inspection is £123+vat for members.įor an OPG with a cephalometric attachment the price is £175+vat for members

For CBCT x-ray equipment, the testing may take up to 4 hours. Our inspection usually takes 45 minutes for an intra-oral x-ray set (including hand-held x-ray sets) and an hour and a half for a panoramic x-ay set with a cephalometric attachment some additional time may be required. How long will an X-Ray set inspection take? For CBCT x-ray equipment where QA test object and accompanying software is unavailable, and for hand-held dental x-ray sets, annual testing is recommended.ĭD can undertake any the required testing of any of your x-ray equipment. Most manufacturers recommend you have an annual maintenance check.įor radiological testing, a test should be undertaken at least once every three years for intra-oral, panoramic, panoramic/cephalometric x-ray sets, and where quality assurance test object and accompanying analysis software is available, dental CBCT x-ray sets.
