To inspect intraoral images on a layout, such as a Full Mouth X-ray (FMX) series, click Intraoral RX on the workspace bar.
Note
This workspace is only available if intraoral images are added to the diagnosis.
This workspace consists of placeholders for viewing the intraoral images for this patient, and a thumbnail bar at the bottom.
Customize the workspace with SmartLayout.
Focus on one tooth with SmartFocus.
Sort Intraoral Images
If the intraoral images have been acquired with DTX Studio Clinic and if the loaded tooth range matches the placeholder range, the images are automatically shown on the correct placeholder.
The thumbnail bar contains all the images that are loaded and not shown in the workspace placeholders. The images are sorted by creation date.
To sort and mount the intraoral images that have not yet been sorted automatically, click Sort .
To manually add an intraoral image to the workspace, drag an image from the thumbnail bar and drop the image on a placeholder.
If the placeholder already contains an image, the images are stacked. The most recent image is on top. Click the layers icon (
) to see all the images in the stack.
To add more intraoral images to the thumbnail bar, click Data (
). Then select Capture, or Import 2D images.
Note
When exporting the intraoral images in DICOM format, the set tooth range is saved inside the DICOM file, so the tooth numbers are recognized by third-party applications.
Arrange Intraoral Images
To change the intraoral placeholder arrangement or to only show media captured per template (study), click the drop-down arrow in the top-left corner. Make sure View by date is selected. Then select All templates, and one of the template options.
To only show media captured per template, select View by template. By default, the most recent study is selected. Use the arrow keys (
) to navigate between studies.
To add the selected template to your favorites, choose Add current template to favorites. This template will then be listed directly in the drop-down menu. Cycle through your favorite templates by clicking the right and left arrows on the workspace. The favorite templates can be shared via the settings. To remove the selected template from the favorites list, choose Remove current template from favorites in the drop-down menu.
Alternatively, set the default templates in the Image settings preferences and use the keyboard shortcuts below:
| Keyboard Shortcut | Action |
| [Shift+Ctrl+F] or [Shift+Cmd+F] | Change layout to default intraoral workspace template. |
| [Shift+Ctrl+C] or [Shift+Cmd+C] | Change layout to default capturing template. |
| [Shift+Ctrl+B] or [Shift+Cmd+B] | Change layout to vertical bitewing template. |
Every placeholder is linked to certain tooth positions, so if you change the layout, the images linked to the corresponding tooth numbers will appear on the right spot.
To visualize a particular set of intraoral images, select an acquisition date from the All acquisition dates list in the top-right corner of the workspace.
Inspect Intraoral Images
Double-click an intraoral picture to inspect it in detail: add measurements and annotations, apply brightness and contrast and image filters.
To highlight the enamel, dentin and pulp chamber of the tooth in different colors for easy identification, apply the Anatomy filter via the Viewer smart panel.
Switch to another image by clicking on a thumbnail on the minimap in the overview on the Layout smart panel. Alternatively, use the arrow keys ( ), or the arrow icons (
).
Multiple images can be stacked in the same placeholder. Click the layer icon () to show all the images and click the compare icon (
) to compare them.
To return to the initial overview, double-click the image again, or press Esc, or click the green left arrow (
).
Edit Intraoral Images
Double-click the intraoral image you want to modify. To flip or rotate, right-click the maximized image and select the corresponding action. Alternatively, click the drop-down arrow in the top-left corner, and select the corresponding action.
