Read more about reporting on the old grading system here. Any previously graded radiographs will retain the grading applied to them.
How do I run the radiograph audit report for chart images?
To use the audit report you MUST grade your images. This is done by uploading them into Dentally under the 'Images' tab on the patient's chart screen and adding in the relevant grading options and details if needed.
When images are uploaded, the new grading options are shown as below:
As per the Dentally Vision source, the 'Chart Images' report will indicate the percentages graded as 'Acceptable' and 'Not Acceptable' against this 95% target in a bar graph.
In the example below, the results include radiographs graded with the previous gradings of 1 and 2, counting towards the 95% result of acceptable:
Understanding your report
Patient: opens the 'Patient Details' page in Dentally for that patient.
Description: is displayed as it was entered at the time the image was taken.
Justification: is displayed as it was selected at the time the image was taken.
Date Taken: is the date the image was taken as part of the exam.
Taken By: is the practitioner who took the image.
Developed by: the practitioner who developed the image. Often this would be the same person who took the image.
Grade: is the grade selected for that image.
How do I report on my old grading options?
Where the reported range contains radiographs graded using the previous options of Grades 1, 2 & 3, Grade 1 or Grade 2 are considered as 'Acceptable' and therefore will be considered as part of the percentage counting towards the 95% target. Grade 3 will be considered part of the percentage counting towards the 'Not Acceptable' total.
If the date range of the report contains radiographs using the previous grading options, the numbers of these radiographs will be highlighted specifically, alongside those graded 'Acceptable' or 'Not Acceptable'.
Please note: Where a radiograph was previously uploaded with a grading of 1, 2 or 3, editing the radiograph will allow the user to adjust the grade to the new options of A or N, or retain the original grading.
