To Create a Reference Set
Reference sets can be created for local populations. The Create Reference Set feature allows the operator to
input reference data from a printed copy or from a statistical analysis of a local population.
The operator is able to select the scan type and the region for which the reference set is being created. For each
scan type, the region pull-down menu has an option labeled “Other”. When this option is selected, the “User
Defined” edit field determines the region name.
Note that the operator is allowed to create reference sets for multiple user defined regions for a given scan type.
Also, for the same scan type and region name, multiple reference sets can be created with different titles. In the
case of the
Small Subject scan type, you will note that when you click on Small Subject, the “Small Subject”
checkbox in the Research group box is checked as active.
This section explains how to create a Reference Set.
1. Click on File > Reference Sets to open the Reference Set window.
2. Click on to open the Create Reference Set dialog box.
3. Click on a Scan Type radio button according to the type of Reference Set being created (“ Whole Body ” is
used in this example).
4. Click the drop-down arrow to select and define a scan region ( Total used here). The box labeled User
Defined would be a special region designed by the operator.
