Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Proceed with caution

Why
Strong research traction and genuine advantages (wearable, cryogen-free, tolerates dental metal, higher SNR), but research-only regulatory status and the shielded-room dependency keep it short of clinical readiness.
Next
Adopt for research now; for any clinical pathway wait on regulatory clearance and the funded clinical-adoption work (incl. the MoD mobile-scanner contract) before patient-facing use.
