FAQs
Does IDEXX WebPACS integrate with Midmark Progeny?
WebPACS integrates with Midmark Progeny as long as it’s running on version 1.2 or higher. If your practice is running an older version of Progeny, Midmark will upgrade it for free. Practices would need to contact Midmark to start that process.
How can Progeny dental images be supported in the integration?
To support Progeny in the Shepherd integration, you must change the settings in Progeny so images send directly to WebPACS instead of the x-ray capture software. For Progeny to send to WebPACS, the Progeny software would need to be running on version 1.2 or higher (if they are using a lower version, Progeny support will upgrade this for free).
How can IDEXX Telemedicine be supported in the integration?
Once live with WebPACS, your telemedicine account can be integrated. This will allow you to send a case to telemedicine, and when the report comes back, there is a link to the report available within the patient card in WebPACS.
