2.1.2. rEGIOnS OF InTErEST (rOI)
You have the possibility to adjust the ROIs to the current ventilation conditions.
Depending on the type of analysis you can choose between layers, quadrants
and free arrangements of ROIs. This overview shows typical examples:

Orange = Loss of ventilation
Blue = Gain of ventilation

After activation, a new window, the
Differential Image, appears instead of the
Tidal Image. At the time of referencing, the reference Tidal Image is
captured and moved under the Differential Image. Subsequent changes,
however, will not be visible until the ›View Change‹ window is activated. In the
Differential Image, the current status is compared with the reference status and
the differences are displayed. This allows to quickly see areas with an increase
or decrease in ventilation. These are illustrated by the following color coding:
