The Worldwide Leader in Handheld X-ray

Forensics Applications

With the increasing number of natural and man-made disasters occurring around the world, the need for safe, portable dental radiography equipment for disaster victim identification (DVI) and forensic applications has never been greater. The NOMAD eXaminer handheld X-ray system is the system of choice among forensic odontology teams worldwide.

A number of forensic experts were first introduced to the NOMAD at Sites 1 and 2 in Thailand following the 2004 Asian Tsunami. In addition, NOMAD was showcased during the BAHID/NFI (Veldhoven, Netherlands), AAFS/ASFO (Seattle, USA), and ANZFSS (Fremantle, Australia) conferences.

The NOMAD eXaminer is a valuable forensic tool that has been found to be an extraordinary advancement for crime scene and mortuary examinations. Following the tsunami, the NOMAD eXaminer was indispensable in dealing with the massive human identification effort in Thailand. Since that time, the NOMAD eXaminer has been deployed to disaster scenes throughout the world. In many cases, it was demanded by forensic specialists who have experience with the device and appreciate its importance to their work. In fact, several forensic odontologists have purchased NOMAD devices for their private practices or in preparation for their next DVI duty. The NOMAD eXaminer was also the only portable X-ray unit used by the forensic odontologists of DMORT (USA) at the Hurricane Katrina sites, and has been adopted in large numbers for deployment by Kenyon International.

NOMAD eXaminer advocates worldwide are working hard to build awareness of the device within the global DVI and forensic communities because of its unique benefits for these applications. Weighing less than 4 kg, the battery-powered NOMAD was engineered for operator safety and is the only FDA-registered, UL, and CE-marked portable, handheld dental X-ray system for local or global DVI operations.
