The dental imaging platform for iPad

Open CT, CBCT and MRI studies on iPhone or iPad. Scroll slices, adjust window and level, measure regions, reconstruct MPR and review 3D views without a MedScan account or cloud upload.

Import standard DICOM studies from Files, AirDrop, archives, web links or a compatible PACS. Expanded support includes ultrasound cine, PET/CT fusion, DICOM overlays, reports and WSI.

01 DENTALARCH / PANO / HU

The dental toolkit, on your iPad

From CBCT import to implant-site review in a few taps — the workflow a chairside consult actually needs.

ARCH / PANO

Dental arch & panoramic reformat

Draw the arch spline on an axial CBCT slice and get a curved panoramic reformat instantly — with orthogonal cross-sections along the curve for implant-site review.

FDI / UNS

Tooth numbering

Tooth-position overlay in FDI and Universal systems, so cross-sections and findings map to the exact tooth you are planning around.

HU PROBE

Misch bone-density probe

Tap any point to read HU and its Misch classification (D1–D4) — a fast bone-quality check at the planned implant site.

PRESETS

CBCT window presets

One-tap window/level presets tuned for CBCT: bone, soft tissue, sinus airway — plus fully manual WL/WW when you need it.

X-SECT

Implant-ready cross-sections

Serial cross-sectional slices perpendicular to the arch, with distance and angle measurements for ridge width and height.

MISCH SCALE

D1 > 1250 HU — dense cortical
D2 850–1250 HU — thick porous
D3 350–850 HU — thin porous
D4 150–350 HU — fine trabecular

03 PACSQIDO-RS / WADO-RS

Pull studies straight from your PACS

MedScan is a DICOMweb client: search by patient, date, or modality and download studies over the standard QIDO-RS / WADO-RS pair. Works with Orthanc, dcm4chee, and any compliant server — Basic auth or OAuth.

  • DICOMweb query & retrieve (QIDO-RS, WADO-RS)
  • Basic auth and OAuth 2.0 sign-in
  • Import from Files, AirDrop, email, ZIP, DICOM CD copies
  • Export back to DICOM for sharing or archiving

04 PRIVACYON-DEVICE ONLY

Patient data never leaves the device

Everything — decoding, rendering, measurements — runs on the iPad’s own silicon. There is no cloud to trust, because there is no cloud.

100% offline

Works in a basement reading room or on a plane. No connection required.

No account

No sign-up, no email, no profile. Open the app and open a study.

No cloud

Studies live in the app sandbox on your device until you delete them.

05 VIEWERMPR / 3D / FUSION

Workstation power, tablet weight

The reading tools you expect from a desktop viewer, rebuilt for touch.

MPR

Axial, coronal, sagittal with synchronized crosshair navigation.

3D volume rendering

GPU volume rendering with bone and soft-tissue presets.

Study comparison

Two studies side by side — prior vs. current, synced scroll.

PET/CT fusion

Fused overlay with adjustable blend and SUV-aware windowing.

Whole-slide imaging

Deep-zoom pathology slides (WSI) with smooth tile streaming.

Cine playback

Multiframe loops at native frame rate — ultrasound, angio, echo.

Measurements

Length, angle, area, HU probe — calibrated by pixel spacing.

Annotations & export

GSPS-aware annotations and DICOM export for sharing back.

06 AHEADROADMAP 2026

Where MedScan is going

The imaging engine is the foundation. On top of it, we’re building AI-assisted dental analysis — the class of tooling pioneered on the desktop, made native and on-device on iPad.

IN DEVELOPMENT

Pathology highlighting

Model-assisted flagging of regions of interest on CBCT and panoramic views — caries, periapical lesions, bone-loss patterns — for the clinician to confirm or dismiss.

IN DEVELOPMENT

Automatic tooth charting

Detection and numbering of every tooth in the volume, so the chart fills itself and findings attach to the right tooth from the start.

RESEARCH

Structured reports

Findings assembled into a structured, exportable report — written by the clinician, organized by the platform.

All AI features are in development, run on-device, and assist — they do not diagnose.

07 FAQCOMMON QUESTIONS

Questions dentists (and everyone else) ask

Can MedScan open dental CBCT scans on iPad?
Yes. MedScan is built dental-first: import a CBCT study (from Files, AirDrop, a DICOM CD copy, or your PACS), draw the dental arch, and get a panoramic reformat with cross-sections, tooth numbering, and a Misch HU bone-density probe.
Which DICOM formats and codecs does MedScan support?
The full mainstream codec line: JPEG 2000, JPEG Lossless, JPEG-LS, baseline JPEG, RLE, and uncompressed transfer syntaxes. It also renders retained objects as content — SEG segmentations, RT structures and dose, GSPS annotations, Structured Reports, and encapsulated PDFs.
What is the Misch bone-density classification in MedScan?
MedScan reads Hounsfield Units at any tapped point and maps them to the Misch D1–D4 bone-density classes, a common shorthand for bone quality at an implant site. It is an informational reading, not a diagnostic verdict.
Can I connect MedScan to my PACS?
Yes. MedScan is a DICOMweb (QIDO-RS / WADO-RS) client: search your PACS and pull studies over Basic auth or OAuth. Orthanc and dcm4chee work out of the box; any standards-compliant DICOMweb server should too.
Does MedScan upload my patients’ scans to a cloud?
No. MedScan is 100% offline and on-device: no account, no cloud, no telemetry on your studies. Files you import stay in the app sandbox on your iPad or iPhone until you delete them.
Does MedScan work on iPhone, or only iPad?
Both. The layout is iPad-first — panoramic reformat and side-by-side comparison shine on the large screen — but every feature, including MPR and 3D, also runs on iPhone.
Can MedScan show PET/CT fusion and 3D volume rendering?
Yes. PET/CT series fuse into a blended overlay with adjustable opacity, and any CT or CBCT volume can be rendered in 3D with bone and soft-tissue presets.
Is MedScan a medical device?
No. MedScan is a viewer for reviewing and measuring imaging studies. It is not a certified medical device and is not intended for primary diagnosis.
