MPEGVue Export Configuration
3-10-7-1
Introduction
The procedures below describe how to set up the Vivid q N portable ultrasound scanner for MPEGVue
export. This provides the user with the ability to export an entire patient exam into standard supported
media (such as, CD, DVD, or USB Memory Stick [disk-on-key]) in standard MPEG or JPG format. The
exported exam can later be read on any PC.
Media containing one or several patient exams in MPEGVue format is easily generated on the
Vivid q N. When exporting data from the system for this purpose, the exported examination contains files
in HTML, MPEG and JPG formats for all of the images in the exam. It also contains measurements and
reports generated and saved during the exam; the reports are all saved as files in .CHM format.
Any media generated as MPEGvue also contains an embedded MPEGVue viewer, allowing the user to
view it on any PC without having to install any additional software.
The exported exam may be viewed on any PC operating on Windows 2000, 2003, Windows XP or
Windows Vista.
This can prove useful in many situations - for example, when sending patient data for a second opinion,
for academic lectures, conferences, presentations,
etc
. Another way of using this feature is to directly
provide the patient with an MPEGVue disk (CD or DVD) containing, for example, an OB exam.
