When a proper, valid calibration set is active, the Calibration Set Selection window shows the used calibration set in green. In the Isovalue editor displayed in the Radiographic Guide wizard, the label of the used isovalue is Calibrated isovalue.
When no calibration set for your scanner is available, the system default calibration set is used (in the list displayed in blue). However, it is advisable to use the NobelGuide calibration object for generating a calibration set from the scanner which is intended to be used.
Using DTX Studio™ Implant, the appropriate calibration set can be applied at any stage during the planning workflow before ordering the surgical template.
When using a system generated calibration set, the label of the isovalue used when creating the radiographic guide is Suggested isovalue.
When a calibration set is outdated, it is advisable to create a new set. The outdated set will be indicated in orange. A red warning bar is shown, indicating that the calibration set is outdated and that it is advisable to create a new calibration set.
Using the calibrated isovalue when creating a radiographic guide model is recommended. This calibrated isovalue is computed with the calibration procedures, and is defined in the calibration set.
When calibration is used, the isovalue editor shows Calibrated Isovalue instead of Isovalue. When using a system generated calibration set, Suggested isovalue is displayed.
If no calibration set is used for the creation of a radiographic guide model, it is important to select an appropriate isovalue. However, to create a template and send an order, a warning message (The radiographic guide model was created without a calibrated isovalue) will be displayed in the warning overview, the approve dialog, and in the reports.
