Email Images & Layouts

You can email individual images or an entire layout as part of a message to a patient, parent, dentist, or anyone else you choose.

1. Open the Patient's Image Layout - View the static image layout that contains the images you want to email: You cannot email from a cardflow layout. (See "Patient Imaging Page" for details.)

2. Select Images to Include - (Not required when emailing an entire layout.) Click an individual image to work with. To select multiple consecutive images, hold down the Shift key, then choose the first and last image to include. To select multiple non-consecutive images, hold down the Ctrl key, then click each image you want to include. In addition, you can click Select All from the ribbon bar (or press Ctrl-A on your keyboard) to include all images.

3. Initiate Email - Click Email from the ribbon bar, and choose whether you want to email the entire layout, or only the selected images. (If you have not selected one or more specific images, the Images choice is not available.)

   

   You can also right-click an image and select Email to email the selected image: Layouts cannot be emailed in this manner.

4. Select Recipients - Choose to send the images or layout to the email address of the patient, responsible party, or professional associated with the patient folder, or select Other or Multiple to send the images to a different email address.

   Select Individual Recipient - Choose from among email addresses associated with the patient folder, or click Other to type a different address.

   

   Select Multiple Recipients - Select Multiple..., then choose the individuals you want to receive the message. You can use the To, Cc, and Bcc buttons to add addresses to the list, or double-click to add and remove addresses as needed. You can also click Clear to remove all selected addresses. All recipients will receive the same email message content and attachments, and a notification will be added to each individual's correspondence history.
