TSI surface model
A Surface model representation of the left ventricle with TSI
color coding can be generated from a TSI Tri-plane acquisition
by applying a sampling path in the myocardium. The sampling
path is created by placing control points in the myocardium.
1. In Tri-plane TSI mode, acquire an Apical 4 chamber view in
scan plane 1 (yellow).
2. If required rotate scan plane 2 and 3 to display an Apical
2 chamber view in scan plane 2 (white) and an Apical long
axis view in scan plane 3 (green).
3. Press Freeze .
4. Press Measure .
The
Measurement
menu is displayed.
5. In the
Measurement
menu select Surface Map .
The
Mapping tool
is selected (see Figure 8-33).
