Last week, Imaging Sciences International, Inc., the manufacturer of the iCat Cone Beam 3-D dental imaging system, announced that it has been acquired by Danaher Corporation. How does this effect the overal market for Cone Beam CT? Will we see the technology gain larger adoption now in dental implantology?

Imaging Sciences’ President, Ed Marandola, had this to say about the deal, “We are extremely excited to become a key part of the leading dental equipment team, and we are confident that this transaction will solidify i-CAT as the top choice for dental practitioners in need of a value-creating 3-D imaging solution.”

Bob Joyce, President KaVo Gendex North America, stated, “Adding the number one 3-D imaging product line to our 2-D offerings from Gendex and DEXIS demonstrates our commitment to dental professionals at a time when practitioners increasingly recognize the need for the powerful information these systems provide.”

In North America, i-CAT is currently exclusively distributed through Sullivan Schein Dental(TM), a Henry Schein division. i-CAT is distributed outside the United States by several other distributor partners.

    Can you please advise who the distributor of i-CAT may be outside of North America, particularly in the South Pacific region and Australia.

    Thank you,
