Only available in DTX Studio™ diagnose Pro. |
To open this workspace, click 3D Tooth on the workspace bar. Alternatively, press [F4]. Here you can inspect a tooth.
Note
This workspace is only available if a 3D (CB)CT scan is added to the diagnosis and the tooth positions have been calibrated, either automatically when setting up an OPG curve (e.g., in the import wizard), or manually via the tooth positions tool.
At first, the 3D tooth workspace looks like an MPR workspace composed of four viewers: a parallel reslice viewer, a perpendicular reslice viewer, a horizontal reslice viewer, and a 3D viewer. Via the Layout tab of the smart panel you can add or remove a reslice viewer or related image.
The perpendicular viewer has a vertical slider which rotates the slices around the tooth rotation axis. The index in the bottom-right corner shows the amount of rotation of the reslice around the tooth rotation axis.
Dynamic slice hints indicate the orientation of the reslice. Depending on the situation, the following slice hints are shown: Oral/Buccal (O / B), Mesial/Distal (M / D), Left/Right (L / R).
The position of a viewer relative to the other viewers is indicated by colored index lines.
Notes
The 2D viewers have a default slice thickness of 0.5 mm.
To visualize the position of the reslices, the reslice objects on the 3D viewer in the bottom-left corner can be displayed. On the Viewer tab of the smart panel, make sure the visibility icon in front of the Reslice objects is selected.
The composition of the tooth workspace is saved per tooth per diagnose.
The workspace can be customized. To add an image to the workspace, click an image on the Layout tab of the smart panel. The image that was added gets a green border on the smart panel.
Click the image on the smart panel again to remove it from the workspace. You can add up to 12 viewers. To rearrange the layout of the workspace, drag one of the window splitters . That way you can change the proportion of the viewers. When the workspace is changed, the last position of the splitters for this workspace is saved on user level. Drag the splitter all the way to hide images. To reset the viewers, click the Reset Layout button
.
The composition of the tooth workspace is saved per tooth per diagnose.
To adjust the rotation axis:
Click Edit axis . A blue guideline cross is drawn on top of the 2D viewers and the 2D viewers are marked with the orange text Edit axis.
Move the mouse to the slice intersection to enable the translation mode (). Drag the mouse to translate the image and change the image center point.
Move the cursor to the periphery of the viewer to enable the rotation mode (). Drag the mouse to rotate the image data around the center point of the viewer. The parallel and horizontal reslice viewers are linked to the perpendicular reslice viewer, so they translate/rotate together.
Click Edit axis again to finish the action.
The set rotation axis is saved for each tooth position.
