active cell will move to the next row. To later select loops
from the Continuous Capture, enter Protocol screen and
click on the Continuous capture thumbnail in the lower left
corner.
OR
Press New capture to start a new Continuous capture
acquisition at this stress level.
14. While on a row with Continuous Capture, press Next Level
to store the data acquired during Continuous Capture and
progress to the next row (this will exit the Protocol if
Continuous Capture was on the final row).
15. Perform Analysis and scoring (see page 7-16).
Continuous capture with additional image acquisition
After acquiring Continuous capture, additional images can be
stored to the clipboard before the patient’s heart rate decreases
toward recovery level. These additional images may be acquired
with other scanning modes (using the same probe and
application), before doing image assignment to the views. The
following procedure applies if the Continuous Capture is on the
final row:
1. Perform Continuous capture as described above (steps 1
to 10).
2. If the buffer is not filled up: press Finish Level on the control
panel. The Continuous Capture recording is stored for later
selection and live scanning is activated outside the stress
protocol.
If the buffer is filled up: press Select later. Scanning is
activated outside the stress protocol.
3. Perform the additional acquisition (e.g. Color flow, Doppler).
Images will be stored outside the protocol.
4. In order to resume the stress echo exam and assign loops
for the views from the Continuous capture buffer, press
Protocol.
5. Select the Continuous capture thumbnail on the lower left
corner of the Protocol screen.
The Continuous capture selection screen is displayed.
6. Assign the cineloops to the views (see page 7-13).
7. Press Done when you are finished selecting.
8. Perform Analysis and scoring (see page 7-16).
Postponed image assignment
The assignment of the cineloops to the views can be done on a
later stage on a stored Continuous capture acquisition.
