1. The measurement accuracy for the spliced image may be degraded, exercise
caution when measurements are performed on an iScape image.
2. If there is a trace during the retracing, please don’t perform measurement
across the trace.
5.12.3.5 Evaluate Image Quality
Many variables may affect the overall image quality. It is important to evaluate the image
content and quality before an image is used for diagnosis or measurements.
iScape panoramic imaging is intended for well-trained ultrasound operators or
physicians. The operator must recognize image artifacts that will produce a sub-
optimal or unreliable image.
The following artifacts may produce a sub-optimal image. If the image quality cannot meet the
following criteria, you shall delete the image and do image acquisition again.
The image must be continuous (no part of an image moves suddenly or disappears.)
No shadow or absent signal along the scan plane.
Clear profile of anatomy through the entire scan plane without distortion.
Skin line is continuous.
The images are captured from the same plane.
There is no large black area in the image.
