The measurement procedure is the same than the measurement of the Generic Area - Ellipse
(chapter 'Ellipse' on page 11-9 ) .
Remark: After the measurement, the volume of the ellipse is displayed.
1.
To measure volume of an ovoid using one distance and ellipse, select the [1 Dist Ellipse]
item in the menu area. A cursor appears on the screen.
2.
Move the cursor to the start point of the distance measurement and press the right or left
trackball key [Set]. A second cursor appears.
3.
Move the second cursor to the end point of the distance measurement and press [Set]
again.
To re-adjust the start point, press the upper trackball key [Change] before completing the
measurement. This alternates the control from one cursor to the other.
•
When using single image mode, measure the two distances. Press [Freeze] to
return to scan mode and scan the second image. Press [Freeze] again. A new
cursor for the ellipse measurement appears.
•
If you have scanned the second image in Dual mode previously, you can measure
the ellipse within this second (half) image.
4.
Move the cursor to the start point of the ellipse measurement and press the right or left
trackball key [Set]. A second cursor appears.
5.
Move the second cursor (to form an appropriate ellipse) and press [Set] again.
To re-adjust the start point, press the upper trackball key [Change].
6.
Adjust the width of the ellipse by means of the trackball and then press the right trackball
key [Set].
1.
To measure volume of a globe-like volume using one distance, select the [1 Dist] item in
the menu area. A cursor appears on the screen.
2.
Use the trackball to move the cursor to the start point of the measurement and press the
right or left trackball key to fix the marker. A second cursor appears.
3.
Move the second cursor to the second point of the measurement and press [Set] again.
To re-adjust the start point, press the upper trackball key [Change] before completing the
measurement. This alternates the control from one cursor to the other.
This measuring program allows for volume determination of any organ, which was stored by a
volume scan. Several parallel planes are laid through the organ and the areas of these planes
are determined. A measuring program calculates the volume from the measured areas and the
distance between the areas. The larger the number of areas, the more exact the volume
calculation result will be.
Condition: a stored volume scan (Sectional Planes view).
