Working with exams
Explanation
● Users of conventional, film-based X-ray systems mostly use self-
adhesive labels or felt tip pens to highlight certain areas on X-ray images
or to take down notes.
● The images are manually positioned on the X-ray viewing box. Then, they
are compared with other images, measured, superimposed with photos
(orthodontics!) or put in an envelope and sent to a specialist.
● The working procedures applying to conventional film exposures were
transferred to the SIDEXIS XG user interface.
● The working and diagnosing processes of all exams are displayed
together in the exam workspace.
- It is called “Exam” and can be opened, saved and managed in SIDEXIS
XG.
● The SIDEXIS XG software is used in the context of an “Exam”.
● Each image processing session can be saved as an “
"Exam"
”.
- “Processing” also describes the act of merely opening exposures which
are saved in the image database.
- Newly generated exposures are automatically included in the image
database.
● Diagnostic findings are linked to the exposures in the image database and
are also saved there.
● When an “
"Exam"
” is saved, only the objects and/or their references
(exposures), which are displayed on the exam workspace, are saved in a
database of their own.
● Such an “Exam” can also be printed out and exported.
● The first step of starting an “
"Exam"
” is to register a patient.
● The lower half of the patient selection window already provides a number
of selection options for opening an “
"Exam"
”.
● If a patient is already registered, a specific dialog box for selecting an
“
"Exam"
” is displayed.
