Trace Nerve
The nerve canal can be traced on any viewer of the 3D data, but it is recommended to use the 3D panoramic workspace in single-slice mode. The offset view is only available for the 3D panoramic viewer in single-slice mode.
Nerve canals are automatically traced if MagicAssist is enabled.
To manually trace a nerve canal:

Adjust the nerve annotation by moving the anchor points on the viewer.
Drag the gray slider at the right to scroll through the different offset views.
Right-click to finish.
The nerve annotation is added to the Annotation tab.
Note
When recalculating mandibular nerve canals with MagicAssist, manually adjusted nerve canals remain unchanged.
