Measurement 8-1
8 Measurement
There are general measurements and application measurement.You can perform measurements
on a zoomed image, cine reviewing image, real-time image, or frozen image. For measurements
details, please refer to the [Advanced Volume].
1. Be sure to measure areas of interest from the most optimal image
plane to avoid misdiagnosis from inaccurate measurement
values.
2. To obtain accurate Doppler flow measurement values, make sure
the transmitting beam is not perpendicular to the flow, otherwise
false readings and potential misdiagnosis may result.
1. If an image is unfrozen or the mode is changed during a
measurement, the calipers and measurement data will be cleared
from the screen. The general measurement data will be lost (the
application measurement data are stored in the report).
2. If the system is turned off or <End Exam> is pressed during a
measurement, the data not saved will be lost.
3. In dual-B imaging mode, the measurement results of the merged
image can be inaccurate. Therefore, the results are provided for
reference only, not for confirming a diagnosis.
