■ Convert to Grayscale
Select the grayscale conversion type for the image you want to apply the DICOM service to.
– No Conversion: Send the original image without converting it.
– All Images: Convert all images to grayscale before sending them.
– B/W Image only: Only the images that do not have color are converted to grayscale
before being sent.
■ Support
Include Pixel Spacing: In addition to the area information used in ultrasonography, the area
information used in CT or radiography is also included. You can take measurements in a
PACS system that does not support ultrasound area information.
However, only 2D and 2D Color Mode images are supported. In Dual and
Quad
Mode, the depths of the included images must be identical.
■ DICOM Compression
Select whether to compress the images for the DICOM service. Use the combo button to
select the image type and the compression type (Uncompressed or JPEG Baseline). When
you select Uncompressed, the images are saved without compression.
– Single Frame: Specify the compression type for still images.
– Multi Frame: Specify the compression type for Cine images.
– If the JPEG Baseline is selected, you need to select Low, Medium, or High. You can
prioritize either the quality or the compression ratio. You can specify the compression
type, compression ratio, and frame rate. You can select Full, 10, or 20 as the frame rate
for Multi Frame.
■ VOI LUT Setup
Configure the VOI LUT (Value Of Interest Look Up Table). Adjust the brightness and contrast
of a DICOM image when saving it. The saved image can be viewed with any PACS device
that has DICOM VOI LUT implemented.
– Window Center: Enter a value for the DICOM Tag (0028, 1050) setting. The setting value
indicates the brightness of an image that is displayed by the storage service. The image
will get darker if the value is set to 128 or higher. Note that this function can be used only
when it is supported by the storage service.
– Window Width: Enter a value for the DICOM Tag (0028, 1051) setting. The setting value
indicates the contrast of the image displayed by the storage service. Values set to higher
than 256 will result in lower contrast. Note that this function is available only when it is
supported by the storage service.
