Max Framerate
This controls the maximum number of frames per second that are
transferred:
• 25, 30 – Certain high-frame-rate applications like cardiology can
generate very large datasets. Use 25 or 30 to decimate image frames as
desired to send no more than 25 or 30 frames per second. This can affect
image quality.
• Full - no frame rate decimation occurs (frames are not dropped). In
radiology, frame rates are typically under 25-30 so Full should be an
acceptable setting.
Color Support
This controls when color appears in images sent to the service:
• Gray – Regardless of color in the image area, or in annotation
(comments, measurements, arrows, body patterns, depth scale, title bar),
images sent to the service will be in shades of gray. (In DICOM terms, the
Gray setting forces images to be sent in MONOCHROME2 format.)
• Color – Even if there is no color in the image area itself, an image sent
to the service will still have color, even if only the title bar and depth scale
have color. (The Color setting forces images to be sent in RGB format.)
• Mixed – If the image area itself has color, an image sent to the service
will have color; otherwise, the image will be in shades of gray. (The Mixed
setting sends images as is, without conversion.)
NOTE: Color is recommended unless the user wants to reduce image
storage size. Then, Mixed is suggested.

Reopen Per Image
The creates an “association” with the service prior to sending images to
it. Think of it as a handshake. When check-marked, “Reopen Per Image”
causes the to create an association with the service for each image in a
group of images and to release that association after each image is
transmitted. When it is unchecked, the creates only one association prior
to sending any images, and doesn’t release it until all images have been
sent. Reopen Per Image is common for CT or MR, where associations are
used to distinguish views (one association for each view). This is not a
typical use for Ultrasound. Unless you have a specific reason to create an
association for each image, leave this option unchecked.
Enable Structured
Reporting
A Structured Report is a non-image DICOM data file that contains
measurements and calculations of an exam. If you want to transmit a
Structured Report, check Enable Structured Reporting.
