The Measurement function lets you perform measurements on a live or frozen image. The
Measurement function is invoked by pressing the <Measure> hard key on the console. Pressing on
the <Measure> hard key could invoke generic measurement or application measurements, which
depends on the default function of <Measure> hard key configured in Measure Set-up. When
measurement function is invoked, generic and application could be switched by the tabs on the main
screen or touch screen.
Generic Measurements: These are simple tools like Distance or Area. There is no specific anatomy
associated with these measurements and they do not appear in a report.
Application Measurements: These are measurements for specific anatomy or clinical conditions.
The results can be entered into a report that can be printed later.
