To attach images to the patient’s chart:
Acquire new images. The images in the viewer are displayed on the Capture tab.
Click the Attach(ed) img tab.
Make sure the Show All Image Types option is selected.
Make sure the Unattach button is highlighted. Images not attached are displayed in the Image Viewer at the bottom of the tab.
Click-and-drag an image to a tooth, mouth area, portrait area, or document area to attach it to that area. On the tooth chart, a small Camera icon is displayed near the tooth or an asterisk is displayed in the mouth area to show that one or more images are attached. The Portrait area is large enough to display the image, so no icon is needed.
Continue to attach images as needed. There is no limit to the number of images you can attach to any area; the Portrait area, however, shows only the most recently attached image.
To see more images in the Image Viewer area, use the scroll bar.
When you attach an image, the type of image, the tooth # or area name, and the date it was attached are displayed as a caption under the image.
An entry is made in the Prog Notes tab for each attached image. The note indicates whether it is a Generic Image, X-ray, or Camera Image.
To remove an image from a chart:
Click the Prog Notes tab.
Select the appropriate entry, and click Correct Entry.
Select Remove Entry and click Make Correction. Images deleted here are not displayed when you access the other tabs.
Note: A security level of 10 is required to delete images.
