The Patient Picture feature displays a full-color portrait that you can access from the Appointment Book, Family File, Patient Chart, Treatment Planner, Treatment Manager, Document Center, Perio Chart, or Questionnaire and is helpful in patient recognition and identification.
Using Patient Picture you can capture an image using a digital camera or other device that supports Windows Image Acquisition (WIA). You can also browse for, select, and import an existing image from available local or network drives on your computer. You can import image files with any of the following extensions: bmp, jpg, tif, gif, png, and jpeg.
The Patient Picture window includes a toolbar to provide easy access to the Patient Picture's tools.
