Is the use of 2D/3D integration mandatory for treatment planning in SICAT Endo?
No, only a 3D dataset is mandatory for the planning of guided root canal access. The integration of 2D images is a valuable option which simplifies diagnostics. For all those who are used to work in 2D, it is an easy tool to quickly learn how to use 3D as well.
Can I use eccentric IO images for the 2D/3D integration?
No, the matching algorithm of SICAT Endo needs orthogonal images to ensure the best matching results.
Can I match optical impressions other than CEREC?
Yes, within the SICAT SUITE 1.4 STL, SSI and SIXD files can be matched.
What do I do if I don’t have an optical camera or scanner?
Alternatively, you can send stone models to SICAT. This option can be chosen in the order wizard.
Is it possible to visualize endodontic files in SICAT Endo?
No, files are not shown, but the curvature and length of the root canals is clearly displayed and visualized.
Is it possible to create a report?
Yes, screenshots and annotations can be summarized and exported as PDF.
