DICOM files (CBCT, CT, intraoral radiology series) constitute PHI — Protected Health Information under Art. 9 GDPR: they contain patient name, identification code, healthcare facility, referring clinician. For this reason DICOM uploads are available exclusively on the Premium and Enterprise plans, where the platform applies a dedicated background antivirus scan with automatic quarantine, a specific PHI notice signed at onboarding and an opt-in anonymisation option on the practice side.
On Basic and Pro plans DICOM upload is not enabled: the platform blocks the flow with an explicit upgrade message. Recognition occurs by extension (.dcm, .dicom, .dic, .ima, .img) or DICM magic-byte, and cannot be bypassed by renaming files of another type. All other formats remain accessible across all plans within the standard limits.
