May also be known as Kodak Dental Imaging. Also use this bridge for some Carestream products.

There are two different Trophy bridges available:

• Trophy Simple: Not recommended, however may be used for new installations of Trophy. It always uses the patient ID (PatNum) as the image folder name.
• Trophy Enhanced: Recommended for new installations. Required for existing installations of Trophy. For existing installations, the user must type in the name of the folder in the Edit Patient Information window for each patient.

Technical Details

Carestream Imaging 8 users

If you are completing initial setup of this bridge for use with Carestream Imaging 8, use the optional command line argument described in the Bridge Setup section above.

If you have were already using this bridge and have upgraded to Carestream Imaging 8, you should continue using the bridge setup you were using before upgrading, unless Carestream converts your imaging.

Simple Bridge

If using the simple bridge, Open Dental always simply uses the Open Dental PatNum to name the Trophy folders. For example, for John Smith, PatNum=123, his images might be found in this folder:

\\SERVER\tw\123

Troubleshooting

If the bridge is not working, troubleshoot it by creating a Windows shortcut. The location / target is the Trophy program itself. For example, C:\Program Files\Trophy\TW.exe. After creating the shortcut, right-click on it and select properties. Edit the target. Add a space after the original target and then -P, then no space, then the full path to a patient folder without any trailing \. Similar to this:

C:\Program Files\Trophy\TW.exe -PF:\tw\G.rvg\G0000001

Close the properties window. Then, click the shortcut to test. This simulates exactly what Open Dental is doing. If this does not work, then Open Dental will not work either. If it does work, change the settings in Open Dental to match.
