ImageWorks: The Future of 3D Radiography

NewTom NNT Software

NNT is essential for obtaining the scanned images and is the basis for image acquisition.  NewTom NNT software enables the dentist to realize the greatest benefit from three-dimensional Cone Beam images (CB3D). In just seconds, NewTom acquires 360 x-ray views which are reconstructed into a 3D database of the patient's anatomy.  This image can be sent in DICOM 3 format to all major third-party software programs.  For a complete list see our Compatible 3rd Party Software page.  It allows the dentist to perform initial diagnoses and to subsequently superimpose images for assessing growth, treatment changes, and the stability of treatment. The software supports the identification of root inclination, positioning of impacted and supernumerary teeth, resorption, hyperplastic growth, and tooth structure anomalies.

NNT software features the ability to mark the mandibular canal and develop unlimited custom report images. Additionally, ImageWorks provides full-functionality professional/DICOM/MIP software upon request.

In addition to exporting DICOM for most 3rd party software applications, NNT also comes with a free viewing and CD burning feature. The free viewer, NNT Viewer, now standard with version 2.13 and higher, gives other professionals the ability to view, manipulate and create images directly from studies created in NNT. NNT Viewer enables the sharing and collaboration among professionals without the need to purchase the full version of the NNT software.

Build Ceph [40.3 MB] - With NNT it is possible to build a cephlometric image directly from the 3D Reconstruction. Simply load the volume, select the orientation - in this case facing right. A full cephlomentic is obtained directly from the volume. This volume can also be colorized based on different densities within the volume. Additionally, using a axial image it is possible to crop out part of the volume. This eliminates superimposition of the other side of the jaw and results in a crisp, clear cephlometric image.

 

Mark Canal [48.5 MB] - Implantologists using NewTom CB3D can accurately identify and mark the mandibular canal for confident implant placement. By selecting a plane on an axial image a hemi-panoramic makes marking the simple. Once marked a series of cross sections can be obtained from the plane drawn earlier. In this case there are over 100 slices, with a user defined thickness. The previously marked mandibular canal is seen as a single red dot in each of the slices where the canal intersected the cross-section plane. It possible to clearly identify the canal with 100% certainty at along the entire canal, making implant placement easy and confident.

 

MPR [12.3 MB] - MRP or Multi Planar Reconstruction visually shows the relative movement of 1 view (sagittal, coronal, or axial) with relation to the other 2 views. This is seen by the movement of the blue scroll bar and corresponding blue line as it traverses through the other two views. As we move up and down through the anatomy we see where we are in relation to the other two views.

 

PanotoCS [68.9 MB] (Panoramic to Cross-Section) This video shows that with the NNT software it is possible to slice or file out a panoramic at a given slice or height on an axial image. Once this Panoramic is chosen, NNT has a function that will give the user cross sectioned images along that same panoramic plane.

 

Recon [18.0 MB] - In this video we show the scanning process and how we are capturing 360 images or 1 per rotational degree, more than any other CB3D machine on the market. 111 out of 360 images are seen in this short video.

 

TMJReport [47.8 MB] - This video highlights two features within the NNT software. First, we are doing a TMJ study on this patient. We have moved up the patients anatomy to the Tempro-Mandiublar joint and will take cross sections in this area. Secondly, this video highlights the Report feature within NNT. We select a TMJ specific report where which is commonly used for studies of this nature and then add specific images to the study. This feature is akin to a patient chart or record where we can archive the report on a hard-drive or DVD, or print the report and send it back to the referring doctor in the case of an imaging center. The final report includes all of the patient data and time of scan.

 

Third-Party Software

NewTom 3G and VGi images are output in standard DICOM format and are compatible with major third party software vendors, including Dolphin Imaging, Biomedical Modeling Inc., Implant Logic Systems LTD, and Materialise Simplant. NewTom images are also compatible with Guided Implant and Guided Maxillo-Facial Surgery software applications.
