Image Optimization 5-83
The system enters into image review status when the acquisition is completed.ou can perform
operations such as parameter adjusting.
Exit iScape
Press <Freeze> or <Update>, or tap [Recapture] to return to the capturing state.
Or, press <B> on the control panel to exit.
5.12.2 Capture Images
To create an iScape image, start with an optimized 2D (color) image. The 2D image serves as the
mid-line for the resulting iScape image.
1. Press <Update> or tap [Start Capture] on the touch screen to start the iScape image capture.
2. Scan slowly to obtain a single extended field of view image. You can also erase and retrace if the
image is not satisfactory.
3. End image capture:
To end the image capture:
Click [Stop Capture] on the touch screen, or,
Press <Update>, or,
Wait until the acquisition completes automatically.
After the acquisition is completed, the panoramic image will be displayed and the system enters
iScape viewing mode.
Tip:
During image acquisition, none of the parameters are adjustable, and functions such as
measurement, comments and body marks are not available.
ROI: a green box on the image indicating the boundary between the merged images and the
unfinished images.
Tip on the probe speed: During image slicing, the system gives feedback on the probe's moving
speed in the form of colors and words. The meanings are as follows:
Status
ROI Color
Tip
Speed too low
Blue
Moving speed of the probe is too low.
Appropriate
Green
None.
Speed too high Red
Moving speed of the probe is too high.
Guidance and precautions for even movement:
Make sure there is enough coupling gel along the scan path.
Always move the probe slowly and steadily.
Continuous contact is required throughout the length of the extended image. Do not lift the
probe from the skin's surface.
Always keep the probe perpendicular to the skin's surface. Do not rock, rotate or tilt the probe
during the scan.
The system accommodates a reasonable range of motion velocity. Do not make abrupt changes
in motion speed.
Deeper scans generally require reduced acquisition speed.
5.12.2.1 Image Parameters Setting
In image reviewing mode, you can adjust the following parameters:
Image size
Tap [Actual Size] to display the image in its actual size.
Tap [Fit Size] to display the image in an appropriate size according to the current window.
