It is possible to add 2D image to the patient's case and overlay it with the model.
Here are the steps:

- Select Align 2D Overlay Image.
- Put the first reference point (green) on the image, then (red) on the model. Put the second reference point (green) on the image, then on the model (red). Click Align.
