Exporting Images from the Cypress System
 Some DICOM viewers may experience problems reading long loops. The
Cypress system can save loops that range in size from a single frame to the
maximum of 32 seconds. Select a loop size that is compatible to your
DICOM
viewer.
 The study cannot be converted from a DICOM format back to the Cypress for-
mat.
Native Cypress System Format to MO Disk
Studies can be exported in native Cypress system format to the MO drive. This
proprietary format stores images in a highly compressed, lossless format. Stud-
ies can be archived to the MO disk in this format to free up space on the internal
hard drive.
Restrictions:
 Images stored in this format can only be opened for review on a Cypress sys-
tem. Once opened for review, the study can be exported to the
MO disk in
DICOM format or sent to a DICOM server over a network (if the network option
is installed).
