Introduction
The ultrasound system provides an integrated stress echo
package, with the ability to perform image acquisition, review,
image optimization, and wall segment scoring and reporting for
a complete, efficient stress echo examination.
The stress package provides protocol templates for exercise, as
well as pharmacological stress examinations. In addition to
preset factory protocol templates, templates can be created or
modified to suit users' needs. Users can define various quad
screen review groups, in any order and combination, that will
suit their normal review protocol. When reviewing stress
examination images, the images are viewed at their original
image quality, and different post-processing and zoom factors
may be applied to the images under review for effective image
optimization. The protocol template may be configured for
Continuous capture. In addition to standard wall motion scoring
analysis, the user can perform quantitative stress analysis
based on tissue velocity information (TVI), see page 7-20.
A stress echo examination consists of three steps:
• Selection of a stress test protocol template (page 7-3)
• Image acquisition (page 7-4)
• Stress analysis (page 7-16)
