To perform a scan (without creating a scan request):
If more than one device is connected, select a device by clicking its tile.
Select which data you want to acquire with the chosen device.
Notes
Busy devices are marked with an hourglass icon. The Select action is disabled until the device becomes available.
To attempt undoing a device reservation, hover over an image acquisition device that is in use and click Release.
Click the filter icon (
) to filter on the modality type. The applicable modalities for every image acquisition device are shown at the bottom of the device tile.
Intraoral sensors that are directly connected to your computer via USB are indicated with the Connected icon (
).
If the connection to DTX Studio Core or to the image acquisition device is lost, a window will be shown where you try to re-establish the connection by clicking Reconnect or to close the scan module by clicking Close scan.
For a (CB)CT scanner a scout image can be made before starting the actual scan. The scout image is saved on the Patient data tab of the patient record.
Intraoral images are automatically rotated in the correct position. To disable this, go to the image settings.
Upon importing or acquiring a 2D image, level and window values are automatically set. To disable this, go to the Image settings tab in the DTX Studio Home settings or DTX Studio Clinic preferences. In the top-right drop-down menu, select OPG/PAN, Intraoral or Ceph. Clear Auto level window. Enter custom level and window values. Click OK.
Click Start.
Continue the acquisition process for your device.
