Flip Crop
4D, 4D Color Sets the crop plane so that the opposite volume is cropped and the viewing
direction is flipped 180 degrees.
2-Click Crop
4D, 4D Color Crop mode where two parallel crop planes are applied in the volume rendering.
The position and viewing direction are defined by clicking in two locations either in
the 2D reference images or in the volume rendering. 2-click crop enables to quickly
extract any views for visualization of 4D structures.
Flexi-Slice
4D, 4D Color Toggles the display between Volume rendering (Figure 6-1
on page 6-3
) and Slice
mode (Figure 6-10
on page 6-18
).
Multi Slice
4D, 4D Color Enables simultaneous display of equidistant short axis views generated from a
volume acquisition. Alternative displays are available from the Touch panel or by
pressing
Layout on the touch panel.
4D Clarity
4D 4D Clarity is an edge preserving speckle and noise reduction filter that reduces
speckle while preserving or even enhancing significant boundaries in the volume
data. Both cut planes/slices and the volume rendering will be affected by changing
4D Clarity. Increasing 4D Clarity will create images with less visible speckle noise
and with a softer appearance.
Depth/Color maps
4D, 4D Color • Adjusts the volume rendering color from a color map menu.
• Depth color maps: these color maps use colors to improve the perception of
depth. Selecting the Depth bronze/blue color map will display structures that are
close to the view plane with a bronze color. Structures that are farther behind will
be colored with a gray color, while the structures that are farthest behind will be
colored in blue. Very bright colors are almost white, independent of the depth.
4D Depth Illumination map: this color map creates shadows to improve the perception
of depth. Rotate the
Light source rotary on the Touch panel to adjust the light
angle.
