Chapter 15: Image Export Option
NOTE: Image Export is an additional option that can be enabled on compatible Volcano
systems. For information on how to enable this functionality, please contact the local
Volcano representative.
The two Image Export connectors are located on the rear Connector Panel and use the #1
AUX (auxillary) and #2 DICOM network ports. See Connector Panel section.
The Volcano system is compatible with the Siemens IVUSMap coregistration feature on
select systems. The IVUSMap feature provides automated coregistration of the IVUS
images to show the corresponding IVUS location in the angiographic roadmap through
Volcano’s proprietary Image Export function.
The majority of the user interaction and display of IVUSMap resides on the Siemens
system. Please reference instructions for use in the IVUSMap section of the Siemens
manual.
When this feature is enabled on the Volcano system, registered IVUS images are sent to
the Siemens system automatically after acquisition. Two unique behaviors occur on the
Volcano system when the Image Export feature is enabled:
1. During an image transfer to the Siemens Artis system after an IVUS pullback, there
are some Volcano functions that are not available. This includes reviewing a
different IVUS run, recording another run, ending or archiving a case, and switching
modalities.
If the user tries to do any of these actions, the following message appears:

2. If transfer of IVUS images is cancelled during the transfer process, the registered
IVUS pullback needs to be repeated under X-ray. The user cannot go back and re-
send IVUS data for the cancelled pullback after the transfer has been cancelled.
