5-80 Image Optimization
5.11.2 Image Acquisition
To create an iScape image, you start with an optimized 2D (color) image. The 2D image serves as
the mid-line for the resulting iScape image.
1. Press the <Update> key or touch [Start Capture] on the touch screen to start the iScape image
capture.
2. Scan slowly to obtain a single extended field of view image; you can also perform erasing and
retracing if the image is not satisfied.
3. End image capture:
To end the image capture:
Click [Stop Capture] on the touch screen; or,
Press the <Update> key; or,
Wait until the acquisition is finished automatically.
After the acquisition is completed, the panoramic image will be displayed. And the system
enters iScape viewing mode.
Tips:
During the image acquisition, no parameter is adjustable, and functions like measurement,
comment and body mark are not available.
ROI: a green box on the image indicating the boundary between the merged images and
the unfinished images.
Tips about the probe speed: during image slicing, the system gives feedbacks about the
probe moving speed in the form of color and words, the relations are listed as follows:
Moving speed of the probe is too low.
Moving speed of the probe is too high.
Guidance and precautions for uniform motion:
Make sure that there is enough coupling gel along the scan path.
Always move the probe slowly and steadily.
Continuous contact is required throughout the length of the extended image. Don’t lift the
probe from the skin surface.
Always keep the probe perpendicular to the skin surface. Don’t rock, rotate or tilt the probe
during the scan.
The system accommodates a reasonable range of motion velocity. Don’t make abrupt
changes in speed of motion.
Deeper scans generally require reduced acquisition speed.
5.11.3 iScape Viewing
After completing the image acquisition, the system performs image splicing and then enters the
iScape viewing mode.
In iScape viewing mode, you can perform the following functions:
