  To rotate along the Z-axis: rotate the <PW> button on the control panel clockwise 
and the image rotates right along the Z-axis. Rotate the button counter-clockwise 
and the image rotates to the left. 
  Auto rotation 
(1)  In 3D viewing mode, Click the [Auto Rot.] tab on the screen. The system enters the 
auto rotation preparation state. 
(2)  Click [Left/Right] or [Up/Down] to set the auto rotation direction. 
(3)  Set the Start position and End position:

You can view the back of the VR by rotating it 180°. The back view image may not 
be as vivid as the front. (Here we call the initial view of the VR the “front”). It is 
recommended to re-capture rather than rotate the VR if a certain desired region is 
obscured in the VR. 
Image Zooming 
To adjust the zoom factor of VR. The sectional images will be zoomed in/out accordingly. 
  Operation 
Set the VR window as the current window. 
  Press <Zoom> to increase or decrease the magnification factor. 
Comments and Body Marks 
  Function: 
Add comments and body marks to the MPR and VR. 
  Operation: 
The operation is the same as adding comments and body marks in B image mode. 
Image Editing 
  Function 
Image editing is a more elaborate function than VOI adjusting for optimizing the 3D image 
by clipping (removing) the obscured part of the region of interest. 
Tip:   
  In image editing status, no image parameters can be changed. A cutting cursor is 
displayed 
, and the system enters “Accept VOI” status. 
  The editing function is available only on VR. 
  Procedures

2.  Select an edit tool: 
  Contour 
a)  Press <Set> to position the start point, and roll the trackball to trace the region.   
b)  When the start point and end point coincide, the region is selected, or press 
<Set> twice to finish tracing. 
c)  Move the cursor to the region you want to cut and press <Set> again to cut.
