Configuring phosphor plate preferences

As needed, you can configure the options under the Phosphor Plate tab to your personal preferences.

·        ScanX - These are filters to use with a ScanX phosphor plate scanner. The Gamma correction value defines the relationship between a pixel's numerical value and its actual luminance; use it to redistribute the tonal levels of a raw image to be closer to how human eyes perceive them (on a standard monitor). The Intraoral ModePanoramic Mode, and Cephalometric Mode values indicate the scanning modes being used for intraoral, panoramic, and cephalometric images, respectively. The mode affects image resolution.
