KODAK Systems Help Physicians and Dentists Diagnose Injuries to World’s Greatest Athletes

With state-of-the-art imaging systems from Eastman Kodak Company, on-site dental professionals at this year’s Olympic Winter Games in Torino, Italy can help provide better patient care, more easily, to Olympic athletes.

Dental imaging and information systems from Kodak’s Health Group have been provided to assist dental staff at the three state-of-the-art Olympic polyclinics—in Torino, Bardonecchia and Sestriere, Italy—to treat craniofacial-dental injuries as well as provide standard dental care and treatment for participating athletes. Throughout the event, a staff of 16 dentists and 12 assistants will use KODAK digital imaging equipment and film for intraoral and extraoral dental exams in the polyclinics, the primary source of dental care for athletes from all over the world.

“Kodak is honored to supply the polyclinics with quality dental imaging systems to assist with treatment and diagnosis of dental-related injuries,” said Rich Hirschland, general manager, dental systems and vice president of Kodak’s dental systems group. “These advanced solutions can streamline processes, improve patient and provider communication and enhance the level of care provided to Olympic athletes.”
