Manual Composing - Eline

This Job Aid reviews the workflow steps to manually compose images with multiple table moves on MR Systems with Eline software.

Manual Composing Eline Software Manual Composing Eline Software Prerequisites for Composing Image Selection  Image Type – Only MR images are acceptable  Image Matrix – All images of a volume must have the same image matrix  Pixel Spacing – All images must have the same pixel spacing (pixel spacing=FOV/Matrix)  Image Layout – All images must form a cuboid  Database Storage – All images (or series of images) must belong to one study; all images of a volume must belong to the same series.  Series Block – All images must be part of the same series block  Slice Thickness – All images of a volume must have the same slice thickness  Distortion Correction – The same distortion correction setting must be used for all im- ages. It is not possible to mix corrected with uncorrected images.  Slice Distance – All images within one volume must have the same distance factor.  Slice Orientation – All images within a volume must have the same orientation  Slice Inclination – Slice stacks/volumes must not exceed a +/- 45°  Transverse images can’t be composed 1.
