green box. The default active slice is the central slice.
• Slice order number: indicating the order of the slices, the order of central slice is “0”, the slices
before the central slice are marked with negative integral numbers, and the slices after the
central slice are marked with positive integral numbers.
• Slice position (to the central slice): displayed at the upper left corner of each image, indicating
the position of each image (such as -6mm, -3mm, 3mm, 6mm).
• Coordinate axis: indicated on the A, B, C three reference images, match together with the
central slice line, and will move accordingly with the central slice line.
Slice shifting
Tap [Translation] to enable slice-shifting feature. Roll the trackball to shift the crossing point of
central axis up/down, left/right, and the slice lines will shift accordingly with the crossing point.
Slice position

6.17 iWorks (Auto Workflow Protocol)
The main objective of ultrasound workflow automation (iWorks) is to speed up exam times and
reduce the excessive number of user interface manual key strokes that can lead to repetitive strain
injuries over time. It automates a clinical workflow in common exam protocols in a logical “step by
step” manner. It also prevents missing important parts of examinations as well as decreasing exam
times.
A Protocol Event contains series workflow events (annotation comments, body marks and
measurements) and image modal commands to assist the user in routine ultrasound examinations.
NOTE:
The system provides different protocol events based on the different application regions.
Perform the following procedure:
1.
Input the patient information.
2. Tap [iWorks] on the touch screen or press the user-defined key for “iWorks” to enter the
protocol selection screen, and tap the corresponding protocol button to enter the status.
After the system enters the iWorks screen, the available protocol is displayed on the right of
the screen.
3. Perform the scanning and saving according to the screen prompt.
4. Perform measurements or add comments/body marks to the image according to the screen
prompt.
5. After a view scanning is complete, press the [Next] on the touch screen to switch to the next
view according to the screen prompt.
