Dolphin Introduces Browser-Based Software
Dolphin Imaging and Management Solutions recently announced Blue, a browser-based web application of all core Dolphin functions.
Blue is designed for the orthodontic practice, and there are plans to add features for pediatric dental and oral maxillofacial practices in
the near future. The application can accommodate a large number of patients with no performance degradations, while supporting multiple
clinicians and office locations. Blue also works well with smaller, less complex practice operations.
Blue connects to the Microsoft Cloud platform, allowing offices to access data from nearly anywhere at any time. It requires no plug-ins or
on-site computer servers, works on all popular operating systems, and runs on PCs, Macs, tablets and smartphones. Blue also offers automatic
software updates and features, automated backups and an unlimited amount of storage capacity.
Blue is available in two tiers. Blue Imaging includes all imaging and patient communications such as 2D photos and radiograph capture
and archiving, image annotations, cephalometric tracings and measurements, Aquarium patient education movies, and patient letters with
images. Blue Enterprise includes the Blue Imaging feature set plus a customizable practice dashboard with programmable widgets and practice
management features such as scheduling, financials, treatment card/charting, patient questionnaires, SMS, electronic claims, appointment
reminders (via SMS or email), care calls, electronic signature and practice reporting.
