When in LIVE mode, press Record on the control console or the green Record Loop
button to record multiple frames of ultrasound image during a pullback. Capture up to 10
video loops, each with up to 5400 frames. The In-Line Digital (ILD) software display
shows a sagittal view of the blood vessel to the right of the tomographic view during the
recording. (See In-Line Digital section.)
To record a video loop:
1 Select the correct pullback rate:
0.5 mm/sec
1.0 mm/sec
Manual
NOTE: An automatic pullback device should be used to collect data at a steady and
precise rate. Length measurements in the ILD are only available when an automatic
pullback rate is selected.
WARNING: Incorrect measurements will be obtained if the Pullback Rate is
incorrect.
2 Position the catheter distal to the area to be imaged.
3 Press the Record Loop button. Collected data is displayed in the ILD on the right
side of the screen.
4 Bookmarks can be set to mark frames of interest. To set a bookmark in the current
frame, press the Bookmark button on the control console. A white, numbered
arrow appears on the left side of the ILD indicating a bookmark set at that frame.
An unlimited number of bookmarks can be stored within a video loop.
5 After the region of interest has been imaged, press the Stop button on the console
panel or the Stop button on the Home screen.
6 Stop the pullback device if one was used.
A new video loop can be recorded by repeating steps 1-6 above. As mentioned
previously, a maximum of 10 video loops may be recorded within a single case.
