6.16 iWorks (Auto Workflow Protocol)
The main objective of ultrasound workflow automation (iWorks) is to speed up exam times and
reduce the excessive number of user interface manual key strokes that can lead to repetitive strain
injuries over time. It automates a clinical workflow in common exam protocols in a logical “step by
step” manner. It also prevents missing important parts of examinations as well as decreasing exam
times.
A Protocol Event contains series workflow events (annotation comments, body marks and
measurements) and image modal commands to assist the user in routine ultrasound examinations.
The system provides different protocol events based on the different application regions.
Perform the following procedure:
1. Input the patient information.
2. Tap [iWorks] on the touch screen or press the user-defined key for “iWorks” to enter the
protocol selection screen, and tap the corresponding protocol button to enter the status.
After the system enters the iWorks screen, the available protocol is displayed on the right of
the screen.
3. Perform the scanning and saving according to the screen prompt.
4. Perform measurements or add comments/body marks to the image according to the screen
prompt.
5. After a view scanning is complete, press the [Next] on the touch screen to switch to the next
view according to the screen prompt.
