CADI 6 is the latest version of a dental imaging program developed and distributed by Synca Direct. It is one of the finest dental image management products on the market today.
Synca has designed CADI very well; the layout is crisp and simple, with easy to understand icons and very few clicks required to do what you want to do. Even new users will have no problem capturing and editing images because of the intuitive interface.
CADI is not a patient management system; however, it integrates very well with the vast majority of patient management systems on the market today. Of course, CADI also includes a very capable patient database, so if you aren’t running patient management software, CADI will be able to organize all of the images for you (Actually, CADI always organizes the images for you; when linked to your PMS it simply recognizes the patient’s name, and then opens up the correct file within its own database).
CADI is compatible with virtually all intra-oral cameras, extra-oral camera, intra-oral x-ray, and extra-oral x-ray systems. In addition, CADI can also launch external programs such as patient education files or treatment planning programs.
Many manufacturers of imaging equipment will provide imaging software for free, or at a reduced cost. This software usually works adequately, but only for the equipment that it was designed for. Using third-party software, such as CADI, for your image management provides several advantages. For example, if you are using a DenOptix machine (and VixWin) to capture digital radiographs, and want to upgrade to Schick sensors in the future, you will need to go through a complicated process to convert your old images into the new database. With CADI, you only need to install the Schick drivers onto the computer. Also, because you are paying for the software, it is designed to a higher standard than software that is given away at no charge. This means a better initial product, and better customer service when help is required.
