Measurement
You can perform measurements on a zoomed image, cine reviewing image, real-time
image, or frozen image. For measurements details, please refer to the [Advanced
Volume].
WARNING:
1. Be sure to measure areas of interest from the most
optimal image plane to avoid misdiagnosis from
inaccurate measurement values.
2. To obtain accurate Doppler flow measurement values,
make sure the transmitting beam is not perpendicular to
the flow, otherwise false readings and potential
misdiagnosis may result.
CAUTION:
1. If an image is unfrozen or the mode is changed during a
measurement, the calipers and measurement data will be
cleared from the screen. The general measurement data
will be lost (the application measurement data are stored
in the report).
2. If the system is turned off or <End Exam> is pressed
during a measurement, the data not saved will be lost.
3. In Dual-B imaging mode, the measurement results of the
merged image may be inaccurate. Therefore, the results
are provided for reference only, not for confirming a
diagnosis.
