Operating instructions

HeartView CT

You can activate the “Auto load in 3D” function on the

Examination Card/Auto Tasking and link it to a recon

job. If the postprocessing type is chosen from the pull

down menu, the reconstructed images will be loaded

automatically into the 3D Card on the Navigator with

the corresponding postprocessing type.

On the 3D Card you have the possibility to create MPR,

MIPthin Range Parallel and Radial protocols which can

be linked to a special series.

For example, if you always do MIP Reconstructions for

a Coronary CTA examination, you load the images once

into the 3D Card. Select the image type (e. g. MIPthin)

and the orientation, and then open the Range Parallel

function. Adapt the range settings (Image thickness,

Distance between the images etc.), hit the link button

and save. From this point on, you have a predefined

postprocessing protocol, linked to the series description

of a coronary CTA examination.

Exactly the same can be done for VRT presets. In the

main menu, under Type/VRT Definition, you can link

and save VRT presets with a series description.

Some of the Scan protocols are preset with links to a

postprocessing protocol. If you do not prefer to have

this preset, please delete the Range Parallel preset or

overwrite them with your own settings.
