Dentrix Enterprise stores the results for a patient's diagnostic lab tests (for example, blood tests, biopsies, and cultures) that have been received through the HL7 interface. You can detach results that were previously attached to any of the patient's laboratory orders.
Notes:
You cannot use this feature for items such as crowns and prosthetics.
Accessing a patient's lab orders to detach test results from an order requires the "Manage Lab Tests" security right.
