Overview
With the determination of the coded scan bodies in the scanning stage, it is required to capture the relative position of coded scan bodies on the soft tissues. Hence, the software introduced a stage to align the soft tissue and the coded scan body union. This article will carefully illustrate the steps of alignment.
How to align the coded scan body and the soft tissue?
STEP 1: Right side
Scan the coded scan bodies on the right side. With the scanning of the coded scan bodies along with the soft tissue, the data will be aligned together automatically. Users can stop scanning as soon as the animation ends.
Tips: However, in some situations, the alignment result is not correct. Users need to wait for a moment for the automatic correcting. Besides, users can also apply manual alignment.
STEP 2: Left side
Users should conduct the same operation for the coded scan bodies on the left side. Then, the software will automatically correct the alignment result. Consequently, the relative position of the coded scan bodies has been determined.
Tips:
- The soft tissue and coded scanbody alignment step requires two scans, positioned on the right and left sides of the arch. If the user only scans one side, as shown below, it will lead to inaccurate alignment between the scanbody and the soft tissue.
