Carestream CS 7600 Intraoral Imaging Plate

Carestream CS 7600 is an advanced, multi-user intraoral imaging plate (phosphor plate) system used in dentistry to capture and scan digital X-rays. It bridges the gap between traditional X-ray film and modern digital sensors by providing flexible, cable-free plates that are scanned to produce high-resolution digital images in seconds.

The Carestream CS 7600 is the all-purpose network imaging plate system that can scan any plate size and delivers high-quality images. From periapical indications to long bitewing and true occlusal exams, the system covers all your intraoral imaging needs –making it an ideal solution for multi-operatory practices.

As a restorative dentistry device, Carestream CS 7600 captures interproximal (between-the-teeth) cavities that are completely hidden from a visual clinical examination.

Carestream CS 7600 Intraoral Imaging Plate Key Features

• Scan & Go Technology: Each “Smart Plate” features an internal chip that electronically tags patient and operatory data before the exam. When inserted into the scanner, the image automatically routes to the correct patient’s digital file on the appropriate workstation.
• Fast Processing: clinicians can view the first image in as little as 5 seconds.
• Multi-Operatory Support: Carestream CS 7600 designed to be shared by up to 10 workstations across an entire dental practice, eliminating the need to have a dedicated scanner in every single exam room.
• Versatile Plate Sizes: Supports all five intraoral plate sizes (0 to 4), which includes pediatric, bitewing, long bitewing, and true occlusal exams.
• Film-Like Familiarity: The plates are thin, flexible, and cable-free, offering the same placement comfort as traditional film, allowing for a smooth transition for staff accustomed to older methods.
• Built-in Memory: If there is a network failure or temporary disconnection, the unit’s built-in memory stores the captured images so no data is lost.

How Carestream CS 7600 Works

1. Expose: The clinician places a protective sheath over the plate and takes the X-ray just as they would with traditional film.
2. Scan: The exposed plate is dropped into the CS 7600 unit.
3. Route: The Carestream CS 7600 unit scans the plate, previews the image on its built-in LCD screen, and sends it directly over the network to the correct patient’s file.
4. Reuse: The machine automatically erases the plate upon scanning, making it immediately ready for the next patient.
