For the second consecutive year, the i-CAT™ FLX cone beam 3D system is honored
by the Pride Institute’s prestigious award program.
Hatfield, PA (September 12, 2014) i-CAT, a brand of the KaVo Kerr Group, is proud to announce that the
i-CAT FLX cone beam 3D imaging system has been recognized in 2014 with the Pride Institute “Best of Class”
Technology Award for excellence in its category for the second consecutive year. i-CAT FLX was differentiated
from the competition for its unique characteristics that create value for the dental practice. The i-CAT FLX features
clinical control over radiation dose and scan size along with comprehensive treatment tools that benefit both
general dentists and specialty practices.
One of the most notable aspects of the i-CAT FLX is its capability for low-dose radiation exposure. Its QuickScan+
provides for a full-dentition 3D scan at a dose comparable to a traditional 2D panoramic x-ray *+. The i-CAT FLX
allows for clinical control over scan size, resolution, modality and dose, while the updated Tx STUDIO™ software
provides even more integrated surgical and orthodontic treatment tools to help dentists deliver the best care.
Each product honored as “Best of Class” features unique characteristics that differentiate it from the competition
in a compelling way, and more importantly, creates value for the practice. The unbiased and rigorous selection
process is achieved by a panel that, in a spirited debate, discusses the value of different innovations. The panel
members have significant knowledge of and experience in dental technology and are also actively seeing patients.
Because of this, they are able to recognize the innovation that dentists need and should embrace as the profession
progresses.
Dr. Lou Shuman, President of Pride Institute and founder of the “Best of Class” Technology Awards program,
said, “The i-CAT FLX was chosen for its unique innovations with the most significant being its low-dose options.
With radiation dose as a great concern to dentists and patients alike, the panel applauded the ability of this
comprehensive system to achieve a full-dentition 3D scan with radiation exposure comparable to a 2D pan*. It is
apparent that i-CAT has made low dose a priority.”
“We, at i-CAT are thrilled that the i-CAT FLX has again won this prestigious honor,” noted Rick Matty, Director of
Marketing for i-CAT. “This recognition by such a well-respected panel confirms our commitment to listening to
the concerns of clinicians, and then to allocating resources to research and development of low radiation dose
and clinically beneficial 3D imaging products. With this year marking our 10th Anniversary, our celebration is
magnified by achieving the Pride Institute “Best of Class” honor.”
“Best of Class” represents an unbiased, non-profit assessment of available technologies in the dental space. The
dental community will have an opportunity to see the winning products in person at the Pride Tech Expo at the
American Dental Association’s Annual Meeting on October 9-11 in San Antonio, TX. The event offers face-to-face
interaction with the companies as well as technology-centered education provided by members of the panel as
well as the esteemed consultants of Pride Institute.
