Editing Images and Loops
The Terason Ultrasound System lets you modify saved images and loops. Before making
modifications, you must first retrieve the image or loop. The types of modifications you
can make depend on whether you are working with an image or a loop. The Terason
software can edit only Terason Image Format files and loops (.ult). You can use the
Terason software to view images saved in other formats, but not to edit them.
For a retrieved image, you can edit any of these image controls:
• Add or delete measurements
• Add or delete text
• Zoom in on an image (if the image is re-saved, the new zoom setting is not saved)
• Invert Left/Right
• Invert Top/Bottom
• Select a different image map
• Adjust the brightness
• Adjust the contrast
• For Color Doppler and Directional Power modes only:
•
Invert the color
• For Pulsed-Wave Doppler/Triplex only:
•
Correction angle
•
Pulsed-Wave Doppler gain
•
Pulsed-Wave Doppler baseline
•
Wall filter
For a retrieved loop, you can edit any of the above image controls, plus these image
controls (depending on the scan mode of the saved loop):
• Color gain
• Color priority
• Color persistence
• Color baseline (not available for Power Doppler)
• Color threshold (Color Doppler only)
• Wall filter
The loop must be in playback mode to make modifications.
