The Lucas Lifecare's Life Ray handheld is indicated for use only by a trained and qualified dentist or dental technicians for both adult and pediatric subjects for producing diagnostic dental images using various intraoral image sensors/receptors.

LifeRay™ is a battery-operated, handheld, dental X-ray device. LifeRay™ employs a 100 kHz highfrequency DC X-ray generator. This oil-cooled and shielded tube head is energized by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack. The battery is housed under to enable portability. The battery gets charged when the device is docked into its cradle, which is powered through an AC - DC power supply. To focus exposure on the specified zone of the subject, and limit radiation leaking elsewhere out of the device, a shielded beam-limiting cone is engaged to the tube head. This restricts the X-ray field to 60 mm diameter, compatible to dental image receptors. An additional transparent, circular backscatter shield is provided which shall be permanently mounted around the exit of the beam limiting cone to arrest radiation scattering back from the subject, so clinicians can perform in proximity. A wrist lanyard facilitates secure grip, and an inclination display aids in consistent repeatability of radiographs. LifeRay™ employs a fixed tube current of 2.6 mA, but has three selectable tube voltages: 60, 65, or 70 kVp. Exposure duration can be set between 10 ms to 1 s in steps of 10 ms. All these presets can be selected from the home screen of the display through a practical keypad to achieve the best radiograph results.
