Generating and Exporting Virtual Cephalometric Images
In CS 3D Imaging, you can use the Virtual Ceph tool to generate images of integrated lateral, facial and axial views. These images are exported to the patient’s record in CS Imaging, from which you can export the images that a third-party cephalometric tracing software can open.
To use the Virtual Ceph tool to generate a virtual cephalometric image, follow these steps:
-
In the Tools pane, click
