Using Pseudo 3D

Use Pseudo 3D in the Filter icon group to display a three-dimensional representation of a 2D image at a 45° angle and in different shades of gray.

Pseudo 3D is useful for showing furcation involvement, periapical cysts, vertical fractures, and a variety of other difficult-to-diagnose situations.
