LogiqView
LogiqView provides the ability to construct and view a static 2D
image which is wider than the field of view of a given
transducer. This feature allows viewing and measurements of
anatomy that is larger than what would fit in a single image.
Examples include scanning of vascular structures and
connective tissues in the arms and legs.
LogiqView constructs the extended image from individual
image frames as the operator slides the transducer along the
surface of the skin in the direction of the scan plane. The
quality of the resulting image is somewhat user-dependent and
requires some additional skill and practice to develop proper
technique.
LogiqView is available with linear probes in 2D mode only.
Note
: LogiqView is available only when Compound (see
below) is turned off.
Using LogiqView
1. Perform a detailed examination of the anatomy/pathology.
Optimize parameters for tissue texture and visible window
prior to activating LogiqView.
2. Press the assigned key LOGIQVIEW.
3. To start acquiring the image, press
2D FREEZE. Scan slowly
and in a uniform motion lengthwise.
• Continuous contact is required throughout the length of
the extended image.
• Always keep the transducer perpendicular to the skin
surface.
• Keep the motion within the same scan plane.
• Do not make abrupt changes in speed of motion.
4. If required, press
2D FREEZE again to restart the acquisition.
5. To complete the scan, press
FREEZE.
6. Adjust the assigned rotary LOGIQVIEW ROTATE to rotate
the acquisition.
7. Perform measurements.
8. Press IMG STORE.
