Keep All X-rays and Scans in One Place — Patient by Patient

 

With Xrays.Dental, organizing images by patient is fast, intuitive, and secure. Whether you're handling bitewings, periapicals, panoramic X-rays, or full CBCT scans, everything is automatically grouped under each patient's profile — so you never lose track of their radiographic history.

 

Why Organize by Patient?

 

Staying organized is key to running an efficient dental practice. By assigning all uploaded images to a specific patient profile, you can:

• 🗂️ Easily view past scans and track treatment progress

• 🔍 Instantly find the right image when reviewing or planning

• 🔁 Compare current and historical images side-by-side

• ✅ Ensure accurate record-keeping and compliance

 

How It Works

 

1. Create or Select a Patient

   • Go to your Patients tab.

   • Search for an existing patient or click Add New Patient.

2. Upload Images to the Profile

   • Drag and drop your DICOMs, JPGs, or PNGs into the profile.

   • All images will be automatically organized by upload date and type.

3. Tag and Annotate

   • Add custom tags (e.g., bitewing, pano, CBCT).

   • Use notes or annotations to highlight observations.

4. View Image History

   • Every image stays linked to the patient.

   • You can filter by date, type, or file format.

 

Smart Features That Help You Stay Organized

 

• 🗓️ Timeline View: See images in chronological order

• 🧷 Pinned Images: Mark key images for quick access

• 🔎 Advanced Search: Filter by tag, date, or image type

• 📤 Export by Patient: Easily share or back up a patient’s full image history

 

Is It Safe?

 

Absolutely. All patient data is encrypted and stored on HIPAA-compliant servers. Access is restricted to authorized users only.

 

💡 Pro Tip

Use consistent naming when adding patients (e.g., "Last Name, First Name") and always double-check before uploading images — this keeps your records clean and reduces errors.
