PaloDEx Group is a Finnish company making equipment for dental radiography.
The company was started in 1964 as Palomex Oy to manufacture the Orthopantomograph®, a device for making panoramic radiographs invented by Finnish professor Yrjö Paatero.
The device made possible to take a panoramic X-ray dental image in a single exposure.
[1] Palomex Oy was acquired by the Finnish optical and medical equipment company Instrumentarium in 1977.
Two years later, GE sold its dental imaging operations which were formed into a separate company, PaloDEx Group Oy.
