Press and hold down the fluoroscopy pedal to start the fluo sequence for
generating the roadmapping mask.
A first set of frames is used to compose a mask image. The subsequent
frames are displayed subtracted. The syringe icon indicates that the
contrast medium can be injected to create the roadmapping mask.

Start injecting the contrast medium when the syringe icon is shown.
WARNING:
Roadmapping does not work with negative contrast media.
The blood vessels gradually fill with contrast medium and become visible
on the screen. If the option
max opacity
is enabled, the blood vessels stay
visible, even if the contrast medium has moved on.

Release the fluoroscopy pedal when the blood vessels are sufficiently filled
with contrast medium.
The roadmapping mask is stored and displayed as a thumbnail in the
