Compatibility:
To utilize this feature, an organization must be using XVWeb as their imaging solution along with Pearl as their AI/decision support vendor. This feature also utilizes a Pearl feature called ‘Practice Intelligence’.
Description:
A new feature is available in Denticon that allows you to quickly review AI opportunities for the patients in the schedule for a given date. A new page has been added that presents a list view of all scheduled patients along with an indication of whether that patient has any AI findings. A user can select a patient to see details of the AI findings along with details about the selected appointment. This feature will automatically discover AI information about patients that are scheduled for the next 7 days. A nightly job is run to obtain information about any appointments that are added ‘today’ that are less than 7 days away.
