DICOM Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine. DICOM Connectivity, please note the ultrasound system is the DICOM Storage Class User. DICOM Connectivity is for digital data transfer to a DICOM network for storage and this iIncludes DICOM Worklist for querying and retrieving the patient worklist schedule from the hospital or radiology information system. Doppler Auto Stat Enables or disables the default display of measurements and graphical traces to the track mean and/or maximum velocities or frequencies. DVD Digital Versatile Disk Electrocardiogram ECG or EKG, this is the cardiac physiologic waveform generated from leads applied to the skin. eSieImage™ Multiparametric Optimization Used to optimize the uniformity of image brightness in the field of view using eSieImage technology. The system displays the eSieImage icon on the image screen when the feature is activated. eSieScan Workflow Protocols An eSieScan protocol is a predefined checklist to guide you through a clinical workflow. The user can define protocol steps (views) that include an image or clip with measurements, body markers, and annotations. Also, the user can change the sequence of views during a protocol, pause, and resume a protocol. Additionally, create new workflow protocols or modify existing protocols, import, or export protocols using a USB storage device. eSieScan™ Workflow Protocol An eSieScan workflow protocol is a pre-defined checklist that guides you through a clinical workflow. The protocol consists of one or more views. A protocol view is an image or clip that can also include measurements, a body marker, and annotations. When the image or clip is saved and the measurements are performed, a view is complete. Use the configuration settings to create and customize user-defined workflow protocols. Freeze Still image generated by tapping the Freeze key on the control panel. Imaging parameters Displays a list of imaging settings for the active operating mode. Live Imaging This is actively using ultrasound in real-time. Patient Banner Displays patient information, operator, institution, the system date and time.
