Include Orthodontist or Practice Name on Images
You can include either your practice name or the name of the orthodontist assigned to the patient on your patient images. This label can be added, changed, or removed from the image at any time.
Get Started
By default, no images include the doctor or practice name. You will need to edit your VP Imaging advanced settings file (Ourimaging.ini) to specify which images you want labeled. If you are unfamiliar with, or uncomfortable editing system files, please contact Ortho2 for assistance.
Specify Images To "Burn" - Any image that you want to label with the orthodontist or practice name must first be listed in the [BurnInfoIntoImage]section of the advanced settings file, which permanently "burns" the image with a patient id. label. See "Burn Patient ID Label Onto Images" for details.
Choose Images to Label With Doctor Name - List the image types that you want to label with the doctor name in the [BurnDoctorAbbr] section of your advanced settings file.
Choose Images to Label With Practice Name - List the image types that you want to label with your practice name in the [BurnPracticeName] section of your advanced settings file.
Practice Name vs Doctor Name - If the image type is listed in both the [BurnDoctorAbbr] and [BurnPracticeName] sections of your advanced settings file, the practice name and not the doctor name, will appear on the image.
Use This Feature
Add / Remove Label - Whenever you edit the advanced settings file and change the list of images to label with the doctor or practice name, the label is added or removed from existing images when you open a patients' Imaging tab, click Edit, then click Save or Save & Exit. New images that you import or scan into the patient folder will be labeled as soon as they are saved. (See "Edit Patient Images" for details about using the Image Editor.)
View Label - When you view a patient's images from the Imaging tab of the patient folder, or when you maximize an image, the labels are included.
Print, Copy, Merge Image - The label accompanies the image throughout VP Imaging: It is included whenever you print or copy the image, or use it in a merge document.
Update Labels - If a patient changes doctors, you can update the image labels by opening the patient's Imaging page, clicking Edit, then clicking Save or Save & Exit.
More Information
Include Panorex Orientation Label on Images - You can include an orientation label (i.e. "L" or "R") on specific images (such as your panorex images) to improve the accuracy of your patient images. This label can be added, changed, or removed from the image at any time. See "Include Panorex Orientation Label on Images" for details.
