DEXIS™ has released results from new independent radiation assessments of the NOMAD™ Pro 2 handheld, portable x-ray unit. According to the findings, the device meets and exceeds the latest IEC standards (IEC 60601-2-65 Edition 1.2) and demonstrates significantly reduced radiation leakage—reported as seven times lower at the trigger compared with a leading competitor. (Testing was performed with identical exposure times near the trigger location; results may vary depending on test methodology, according to the company.) These data support the system’s design focus on minimizing unnecessary exposure for both patients and oral healthcare teams.
“The NOMAD Pro 2 reflects years of scientific advancement and field experience,” said Rainer Harjunpää, VP for Regulatory Affairs at DEXIS. “As the pioneers of portable x-ray technology, DEXIS has built a system that not only meets but exceeds rigorous safety and performance standards.”
Beyond its compliance with safety and performance requirements, the NOMAD Pro 2 is designed to support clinical workflow. Its handheld, cordless configuration allows clinicians to remain chairside during image acquisition, reducing patient movement and the likelihood of retakes while supporting patient comfort. The system’s design aims to accommodate a variety of clinical settings and includes a battery capacity intended to sustain use across multiple procedures.
DEXIS states that it remains focused on developing imaging technologies that support clinical decision-making and efficient care delivery within dental practices. For additional information on the NOMAD Pro 2, clinicians may refer to DEXIS.com.
