E.g. select A as the current window and roll the trackball, section lines (indicating the
position of A) in the B and C window move, and image in A window changes.
11.1.1.6 Mode definition
The system supports three 3D imaging modes: Smart3D, Static 3D and 4D, all of them
are target for 3D imaging, however, differences exist.
z Smart3D
The operator manually moves the probe to change its position/angle when
performing the scanning. After the scanning, the system carries out image
rendering automatically, and then displays a frame of 3D image.
z Static 3D
Posit the probe at a fixed place, the probe automatically perform the scanning.
After the scanning is completed, the system carries out image rendering, and
then displays a frame of 3D image.
z 4D
The probe performs the scanning automatically. During the scanning, the system
renders 3D images in real time, and all 3D images are displayed in real time.
About the probes
A 2D imaging probe can be applied for Smart3D imaging, however, to realize static
3D imaging or 4D imaging, a volume probe should be selected.
