Bringing cone beam imaging to dentistry
Marandola co-founded Imaging Sciences International in Hatfield, Pennsylvania, and served as its president and CEO. The company made the i-CAT cone beam 3D dental imaging system.1,2
Danaher bought Imaging Sciences in January 2007 and added it to its KaVo, Gendex, and DEXIS dental group. As president, Marandola said the deal would make i-CAT the top choice for practitioners who needed 3D imaging.2
Founding X-Nav
He co-founded X-Nav Technologies in 2012 with a team that included part of the original i-CAT group, to build navigation for implant surgery on top of cone beam imaging.3,1
X-Nav is now developing a navigated robotic surgery system that grows out of X-Guide. The company says the robot is not yet available for sale or patient use.4
