Report templates
If you write reports with a repeated structure (for example, the same format for all implantology studies), templates save you from typing the same thing every time. You create a template with fixed text blocks and placeholders, and when you apply it to the report the skeleton fills in automatically.
Create a template
- 1Go to Settings › Templates.
- 2Click New template.
- 3Give it a descriptive name (e.g. “Posterior mandibular implants”).
- 4Write the body: sections, headings, standard sentences. Leave variable data as placeholders in braces:
{patient},{date},{age}. - 5Save. The template becomes available in the report editor selector.
Apply a template
In the viewer's report panel there is a Template selector. Choose the matching one and the editor fills with the template's content (placeholders are replaced with real patient data).
Suggested structure:
FINDINGS: - Bone status of the {sector} ridge. - Vertical bone availability: __ mm. - Buccolingual bone availability: __ mm. - Distance to the inferior alveolar canal: __ mm. - Bony trabeculae: density __. CONCLUSION: Case __ for placement of __ × __ mm implant. Safety margin to the IAN: __ mm.
You only fill in the variable data when reviewing the case, you no longer write the format every time.
