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 view those results as needed.
Notes:
You cannot use this feature for items such as crowns and prosthetics.
Accessing a patient's lab orders to view test results requires the "Manage Lab Tests" security right.
To view lab test results
With a patient selected in Chart, do one of the following:
Click
the Orders button 
on the toolbar.
On the File menu, click Orders.
If applicable, do one of the following:
If the Password - Manage Lab Tests dialog box appears, user verification has been assigned to the "Manage Lab Tests" task. Do one of the following:
If your user account has been granted the "Manage Lab Tests" security right, enter your credentials in the User ID and Password boxes, and then click OK.
If your user account has not been granted the "Manage Lab Tests" security right, have a user with permission temporarily override this restriction so you can manage lab orders this one time. The overriding user enters his or her credentials in the User ID and Password boxes and then clicks OK.
If a message appears, informing you that you do not have rights to this operation, your user account has not been granted the "Manage Lab Tests" security right. To have a user with permission temporarily override this restriction so you can manage lab orders this one time, do the following:
On the message, click Yes.
In the Password - Manage Lab Tests dialog box, the overriding user enters his or her credentials in the User ID and Password boxes and then clicks OK.

Click the corresponding View Result button (under Results for Selected Order or All Results).
Note: The button is available only if a lab test result is selected.
