General Features
Movement technology:
Patient positioning:
Patient alignment:
Open/close mouth TMJ: 4 views are taken on the same image: left/right condyle,
open/close mouth. Condyles are examined in lateral projection
Bi-axial TMJ: 4 views are taken on the same image: left/right condyle,
longitudinal/oblique projection. One projection is parallel to condyle long axis, the other is
angled at 40 with respect to the first.

Frontal dentition: panoramic limited to the frontal dentition (canine to canine), that allows to improve the detail definition on incisors.
Low dose panoramic: panoramic with reduced angle of rotation to exclude the ascending
ramus from the image. The result is a panoramic limited to the dentition area using a reduced patient dose.
Improved orthogonality dentition: panoramic projection limited to the dentition obtained with X-ray beam constantly perpendicular to the arch. It reduces superimposition of
adjacent teeth and improves visualization of possible interproximal caries.

Image Acquisition
Strato 2000 allows to acquire digital images in two different modalities:
1. Direct acquisition through a USB 2.0 connection:
the images and the exposure parameters are transferred from Strato 2000 to the PC via a
high speed USB 2.0 connection (480 Mb/s). The images are seen forming on-screen in real
time during the exposure.
2. Acquisition on memory card Compact Flash
Strato 2000 is equipped with a slot for memory cards Compact Flash type I with 16MB
to 1GB capacity, where the images and the exposure parameters can be stored also without
a direct connection to a PC. The typical capacity of a 128MB memory card is 7 images.
Images stored on the card can be transferred to any PC at any time after the acquisition
using an appropriate card-reader by the QuickVision software.
Use of fast Compact Flash cards is recommended. Images are stored on the cards in a
proprietary format that must be read using the QuickVision software.
The system automatically recognizes where the image can be stored:
- On PC when Strato 2000 is connected to a PC via USB 2.0 connection
- On Compact Flash when the card is in the slot and there is no USB connection
- On both PC and card when a card is in the slot and USB connection is available
The exposure is inhibited when there is no USB connection and no card in the slot.

QuickVision Software
Strato 2000 digital is supplied with the QuickVision software for image acquisition, storage
and processing.
The QuickVision software is available in 9 languages (English, Italian, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Polish and Chinese) with the following functions:
Patient and Image Archive
Various archives are created including:
- Main patients data
- Exams for each patient
- Radiological parameters set for each exam (kV, mA, sec, anatomical program)
It is also possible to send by email the acquired exams through few mouse clicks on the exams
thumbnails.
Virtual Keyboard
Thanks to a Virtual keyboard reproducing the Strato 2000 console on-screen, it is possible to
set the exposure parameters directly from the PC.
Use of the virtual keyboard and of the on-board console is also possible at the same time.
For safety reasons, the virtual keyboard cannot activate X-ray emission, switch on the laser,
or start any motorized movements.
Exam repetition
A dedicated function allows to repeat an exam using the exposure parameters of a previous
session. The operator selects the exam he wants to repeat, and all the parameters are automatically transferred to Strato 2000.
Image processing
The QuickVision software allows to employ the following functions:
- Image contrast adjustment
- Image brightness adjustment
- Gamma factor adjustment
- Filter for edge enhancement, with possibility to adjust the filter level
- Gray scale equalization to improve the image definition
- Hi contrast
- Embossed view
- 3-D view
- Image rotation (90 and 180)
- Image horizontal inversion
- Pseudo-colors
- Gray scale inversion (Negative/Positive)
- Magnification (up to X32)
- Distance measurement
- Drawing and annotation
- Image hardcopy. Images can be printed on any Windows compatible printer (image quality
may differ according to the printer model). Images are printed with the following parameters:
- Patient data
- Exposure parameters
- Examination date

If equipped with the optional Etiam DicomIzer package, the system guarantees a full connectivity with PACS networks.
It includes:
- PRINT class (for printing on Dicom 3 imagers);
- STORE class (for image transfer to PACS networks);
- WORKLIST class (for automatic retrieval of patients list from RIS/HIS)
- QUERY-RETRIEVE class (for receiving patient data from other modalities)
Etiam DicomIzer package can be completed with the optional Dicom CD for DicomIzer, that
allows to create CD with Dicom images.
Twain Driver (option)
It allows other imaging programs to import images acquired with Strato 2000.
Image Import/export
The software permits import/export of images in jpeg and tiff format.
Image Scan
The software also allows import of images from a compliant scanner.
