Squeeze profile
As of this writing, only a profile pressure table can be included. This table
displays the pressures for each channel over a certain distance of the profile. It
is possible to display a 3D VVP for the squeeze profile. Vector Diagram can be
displayed for the profile when at least three channels are measured radial.

Balloon expulsion test
The balloon expulsion should be marked with two balloon expulsion
markers. The first balloon expulsion marker should be placed before
the expulsion of the balloon. The second marker should be
placed after the expulsion of the balloon. The balloon expulsion state (failed,
partial, or success) will be displayed in the marker name.
Normally, the markers are already placed during the investigation. You
can reposition the balloon expulsion markers or insert new balloon
expulsion markers if they are not marked during the investigation.
The balloon expulsion results contain if the expulsion was successful,
partial or failed, balloon volume, and duration.

Rectal compliance
During the analysis, the compliance can be determined by placing compliance
markers. Place the compliance markers so that they surround the area over
which the capacity should be determined. For each pair of compliance markers
placed, the calculated compliance will be present in the result screen and in
printed reports.
