40 I I industry news _ CAD-Ray _CAD-Rayprovides dentists access to cone beam imaging for en- hanced diagnosis, 3-D treatmentplanningand guidedimplantsurgery. CAD-Ray Imaging Centres across the US use state-of-the-art 3-D cone beam imag- ing technology to help dentists make in- formed diagnoses and provide better treat- ment outcomes. Pa- tients can now be re- ferred to a CAD-Ray Imaging Centre to re- ceive high quality three- dimensional radiographic scans of their entire craniofacial anatomy while providing dentists with all the tools necessary to translate the 3-D scans into successful implant placements. The imaging centres, founded by Dr Armen Mirzayan, serve as full-service facilities. When a patientisreferredtoaCAD-Raycentre,benefitsgo far beyond the initial 3-D scan. Unlike most other imaging centres, the practitioners at CAD-Ray can alsocaptureadigitalmodeloftheedentulousarch, allowing for proper design of an implant place- ment. Once the referring doctor approves the design, the CAD-Ray practitioner orders a stent on behalf of the doctor to ensure that a fully guided fixture placement can be performed with the least amount of risk. The expert design team is well versed in all implant lines that now offer fully guided kits. CAD-Ray Imaging Centres provide greater accuracy, precision, and detail across dental pro- cedures performed today. Integrally involved in empowering doctors to successfully incorporate CAD-Ray imaging into their practice, Dr Mirzayan strongly believes that any doctor that routinely performs an extraction can readily incorporate guided implants into their treatment protocol. “CAD-Ray’s mission is to allow every dentist the opportunity to place implants predictably, effi- ciently, in the proper location, with the least amount of risk,” explains Dr Mirzayan. AdditionalclinicalbenefitsofCAD-RayImaging Centres’ 3-D technology include: _Access to state-of-the-art cone beam imaging; _Increasedpredictability,producingahigherstan- dard of treatment in all disciplines of dentistry; _Higher case acceptance, as patients can visualize and readily understand why treatment is nec- essary; _Minimal exposure to radiation for patients as 3-D cone beam systems use much less radiation than hospital or medical grade CT scanners. Currently, the CAD-Ray Centres are located in Los Angeles and Chicago but plans to expand the CAD-Ray Imaging Centres include10 new offices across seven states.
