Vatech Ez3D-i: Export and Open a DICOM Scan

Vatech’s Ez3D-i manufacturer manual describes exporting CT data to a local disk in DICOM format. Request that export from the practice if you only received a viewer program or project file. The steps below follow the documented interface; labels vary by version, and a particular export may still need support.

Use the documented export dialog

With the study open, use Export in the main menu or the export toolbar icon. In Save Type, select Local Disk. The cited manual shows a Lossless compression option. Under Check to Export, select CT for DICOM images; versions may use different labels. Ask the practice to follow its installed manual if the dialog differs.

Keep the CT files rather than only the project

The manual distinguishes the .dcm CT export from the .epf project created when other export items are included. Select a destination, complete Export and keep the resulting CT files together. A project file or a viewer application is not a replacement for the image series. Preserve the original export before making a working copy.

Open the image series and check the study

Use the complete DICOM folder in a compatible viewer, or package the folder as a ZIP if needed. Confirm the examination date and scanned region against the report. If the series is incomplete or cannot be read, request a fresh DICOM export from the imaging practice instead of renaming files. Viewing is educational and does not replace professional interpretation.
