Instructions
1. On your desktop, right-click on an empty space. Go to “New” and click “Folder.” A folder will appear with highlighted blue text. Type in the patient name and push “Enter” on your keyboard.
2. Open the patient’s CBCT scan and click on “Export” and “Study Export.”
3. A pop up will appear. Under “Export Path,” click “Browse Folders” and select the folder you just created on the desktop and click “OK.”
4. Select both “Use DCM file suffix” and “Save Uncompressed.” Click Export.
5. After the DICOM exports and saves, go to the patient’s folder and verify that the .dcm files were exported correctly; there should be several hundred files.
6. Go back to the desktop, right-click on the patient’s folder, go to “Send to,” and select “Compressed (zipped) folder.” A duplicate folder will be made with either a zipper on it, or a blue “Z.”
If following a Dual Scan Protocol, please zip scans individually and label accordingly; i.e: “Patient Scan” and “Denture Scan.”
7. Upload compressed folder to Dandy Portal or email ImplantSurgery@meetdandy.com
