Microsoft Edge

  1. In Edge, open the same Chrome Web Store listing linked above.

  2. If Edge prompts you, select Allow extensions from other stores, then confirm Allow.

  3. Select Add to Chrome, then confirm Add extension.

  4. Open Edge's Extensions menu and pin Orbit CME – Ambient Mode to the toolbar.

  5. Select the Orbit icon to open the side panel. If prompted, select Log in and sign in with your Orbit account.

Before you open Radiopaedia

Install and turn on uBlock Origin Lite before you open Radiopaedia articles through the extension. The setup prompt walks you through it, and Orbit checks that ad blocking is on for the article page before CME credit is available.

Already have the older Orbit extension?

The older extension has a different store listing. Use the listing above to install Orbit CME – Ambient Mode, then open the new extension to use the right side panel.
