Select the tab arrows to learn more about the measurement application on the ACUSON Juniper. Overview - The video file name: overview.mp4 Vtt file name: overview.vtt The Audio Script is below: This module will cover the activation and use of the measurement application. Select the Caliper key to begin. Once activated, the measurement Touch Screen menu will display the calculation package that is associated with the preset being used. In this example, the abdominal preset is active. The layout of the Touch Screen is intuitive and easy to navigate. The measurements and calculations for all exam types are available and may be changed on frozen or live imaging, as well as on image in review by selecting the desired package as shown here. The top of the Touch Screen displays the available calculation subsets. In the abdominal calc package, an option for dedicated renal labels is available. Modifiers sit below the subsets. Modifiers allow the user to select options such as laterality for a measurement. Specific anatomy labels occupy the middle of the Touch Screen. Folders may also be created to group specific measurements in order to streamline the Touch Screen layout. The Touch Screen supports a maximum of three pages. Subsequent pages are accessed by swiping the Touch Screen to the right or left. Styles allow the user to customize the layout of the labels on the main Touch Screen display without creating a new exam. There are three factory styles that may be customized or copied and customized on the system. Or the user may add an unlimited number of Styles. A style type must be selected prior to the start of an exam. Some anatomical labels have a volume measurement associated with them. Labels with a small triangle in the corner contain all of the component labels necessary to measure the volume. When the master label is selected on the Touch Screen, the individual volume components will be displayed on the screen. The first label in the series will be highlighted and active. Once the measurement has been completed, the system will automatically advance to the next label until all components have been measured. Activation - The video file name: activation.mp4 Vtt file name: activation.vtt The imaging screen will display an active point in the center of the image. Active calipers are green in color. Use the trackball to move the active caliper around the imaging screen and the Update key to toggle between the two points. Once the desired position is reached, use either one of the Set keys to anchor a point. Once a caliper is anchored, the caliper point will turn yellow. To edit a measurement, select the Update key. This will toggle between the calipers to allow editing of the last measurement performed. The Select Next soft key indicated by the arrow is used to cycle through the previous caliper sets for editing of any displayed measurement. To delete a measurement, select Delete soft key. The location of the measurement display area, or MDA, may be changed on the imaging screen. To move the MDA select the Pointer option from the Control Panel. Then move the pointer into the MDA. The MDA will be outlined in blue. Press, the Set key to pick up the MDA, then use the trackball to move it to the desired location. Release the Set key to place the MDA at the new location. Shadow calipers are a useful tool that allows the user to visualize the area of the caliper on both images when the Shadow calipers are on, the Shadow key on the Touch Screen will be blue and the active caliper will be mirrored on the opposite image. This allows correlation of measured areas when using Elastography. Interface - The video file name: interface.mp4 Vtt file name: interface.vtt The Audio Script is below: A customizable generic toolbar sits at the bottom of the Touch Screen. Some of the options available include 2D distance, ellipse, distance, or area ratios, three distance volume measurements, area of stenosis, and volume flow. Additional generic measurements are available under the More key, located on the right side of the Touch Screen. It is important to understand that generic measurements appear on the imaging screen and on captured images only and do not appear on the measurement report. The Soft Keys can also be customized to display measured results on the imaging screen. Summarize, MDA allows the user to display all measurements on the imaging screen without accessing the report. In the OB exam, where multiple fetuses are measured, the Fetal Compare key will display the fetal biometry in a side by side display on the imaging screen. The Results Compare soft key allows the user to compare laterality measurements such as left and right kidney. Some measurement packages contain automated measurement options such as Auto follicle, Auto OB, and eSie measure. Labels involved in the automated option contain a small dot in the upper left corner of the Touch Screen label. Automated measurements may be turned manually on or off using the related Touch Screen key. Reporting - The video file name: reporting.mp4 Vtt file name:reporting.vtt The Audio Script is below: Labeled measurements are entered into the report once the measurement is anchored and completed on the imaging screen. Select the Report key on the left side of the Control Panel to access and display the report. The onscreen report displays the patient demographics, report type, navigation pane, labeled and measured anatomy with up to five displayed results for each label, and print store report options. A navigation pane in the upper left corner allows the user to quickly access different sections of the report. The small arrow in the heading of each section allows the user to hide sections from display. Print options are located at the bottom of the page. The assessment section allows the user to enter a clinical assessment on anatomy that is routinely imaged, such as the fetal heart in an OB exam. Assessments can be configured in a dropdown format with pre-programmed selections. Pre-programmed assessment sections are available for OB, Early OB, Carotid, and Upper Extremity Vascular exam. Customization options and the ability to add an assessment section to other reports is available in System Configuration. For OB Exams fetal growth charts may be displayed as part of the report. Graphs may be customized for the desired parameter such as BPD or AC by chart author. The layout can also be set to either a one-by-one or two-by-two appearance. A comment section is available to enter summary comments into the patient report. Comments may be added manually using the keyboard or from a predefined list by selecting the Load Comments key. Note that multiple comments from the predefined list may be added. Customization options are available in System Configuration. Images may also be inserted into the body of the report. To add an image, move the pointer over to the desired thumbnail on the right side of the screen. Press the Set key to add the image into the report. To remove an image, move the pointer into the report until an X appears in the right corner. Once the X appears, move the pointer onto the X and press set, the image will be removed. Up to 20 images may be added into the report image section. Exam reports are stored to the patient's image file by selecting the Store Report key at the bottom of the page. Reports may also be exported as a PDF document to an attached USB by selecting the Export PDF option at the bottom of the page. The same options displayed on the report are available on the Touch Screen menu. The option to close the report is also found here.
