The Calc system control provides access to the collections, groups,
measurements, and calculations that make up a calculations package. Calculations
packages are system options that are associated with transducers and presets.
A calculations package contains one or more collections that organize groups,
measurements, and calculations into a coherent tool for diagnostic analysis.
Measurement tools provide measurements and derived calculations. Various
methods are available for generating results. The two primary methods allow
you to “measure then label” or “label then measure.” Either way, the results can
appear on the display, on printed pages, and in patient reports, where they are
available for your analysis.
In the setups is an analysis configuration capability that allows you to create your
own calc lists including collections, groups, measurements, and calculations. In
addition, the measurements and calculations can be associated with system and
custom tables and equations.
The measurements and their derived calculations included with the calculations
packages are based on medical references. See "References" in the Help.
