Connectivity on the Vivid i ultrasound unit

for further informa-
tion on connectivity
setup.
The connectivity on the Vivid i Ultrasound unit is based on the
Dataflow concept. A Dataflow is a set of pre-configured
services (e.g. DICOM services like storage, worklist, verify etc.
or other service types like video print, standard print or
messaging). When starting an examination, the user selects a
pre-configured Dataflow that will automatically customize the
ultrasound unit to work according to the services associated to
the Dataflow.
