setup.
The connectivity on the Vivid S5/Vivid S6 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.
