The 6 3D Views
There are 6 different ways you can view the 3D data set:

•

•
MIP
•
6-up
•
Transp.
Cube View
This is a texture-mapped representation of the volume. It is the default view.
Making Measurements in a Cube View
In a Cube view, you can measure the hight, length, width and volume of a pathology,
if you have used a system-controlled positioning device to acquire the data set. (You
cannot make accurate measurements on data sets acquired using untracked freehand.
See the warning on page 106.)
NOTE:
Making measurements on a 3D cube is not the same as making measurements
on a 2D image, as described in Chapter 5, “Making Measurements”. After you have
tapped to position a point to make a 3D measurement, you cannot move the point.
You can only complete the measurement (if it requires more points) and then delete
the measurement and make a new one.
To make a 3D distance measurement:
1
Tap Measure Dist.
2
Tap to position the points of the measurement.
The measurement is displayed underneath the 3D volume.
Measuring Volumes
To make an HWL measurement
1
Tap HWL .
2
Make a measurement of the height of the pathology.
The measurement is displayed underneath the 3D volume with the number of the
measurement and H (e.g. 1-H).
3
Tap HWL again and measure the width of the pathology. The measurement is
displayed underneath the 3D volume with the number of the measurement and
W (e.g. 1-W)
4
Tap HWL again and measure the length of the pathology. The measurement is
displayed underneath the 3D volume with the number of the measurement and
L , along with the volume of the pathology displayed with HWL .
