ViewPoint / Quick Ceph Integration

Use the Quick Ceph integration to open a patient's Quick Ceph record images directly from ViewPoint, and use those images within ViewPoint patient folders and merge documents. In addition, you can create Quick Ceph records directly from ViewPoint patient data.I

Get Started

This integration is user-specific: You must activate the integration on each workstation where you would like to use it.

Open image integration tools - ViewPoint main menu > Tools & Utilities > Image Integration.
Enable Quick Ceph integration - Choose the Quick Ceph integration type and enter your details.
- Path to images - Navigate to the folder where your Quick Ceph images are located for ViewPoint access.
- Path to import - Navigate to the folder where ViewPoint will save patient information for Quick Ceph to use.
- Status order - Enter the first distinguishing character of each status (timepoint) in treatment order, separated by commas. Most often, this is something like I,4,3,2,1,F.
Image filenames - Note that your image files must be saved with the patient's ViewPoint primary ID as the first part of the filename. For example, a patient with the ViewPoint ID JO18 would need to have images saved as JO18x##.jpg, where the status character replaces the x and the image type replaces ##.

Use This Feature

Open Quick Ceph patient images - When you double-click the image box in a ViewPoint patient folder, or click Imaging from the ViewPoint toolbar, the Quick Ceph images for that patient are launched. You can then select an image to view in your default .JPG image viewer. If no Quick Ceph record exists for that patient, you are prompted to create one (described below).

Double-click image box:

Click Imaging from the ViewPoint toolbar:
Create Quick Ceph patient record - Double-click an empty image box in the ViewPoint patient folder to create a new Quick Ceph record. ViewPoint creates a file with the patient's information in your Path to Import location. Using your Macintosh computer, open the Path to Import folder, and double-click or drag the patient's file into Quick Ceph.
Use Quick Ceph images in ViewPoint patient folders - The image file that is labeled as Frontal Smiling Color is the image that will be displayed throughout ViewPoint, for example, in the patient folder, On-Deck, and the Treatment Chart.
Enlarge image - Right-click the image box in the ViewPoint patient folder, then choose Enlarge. The larger image appears in a separate window.
