You have completed the Biograph User Interface Online Training course. Listed below are the key points that have been presented. Take time to review the material before you proceed to the final quiz. Describe the user interface of the syngo MI Acquisition Workplace Explain the purpose of the chronicle, subtask card, and task card Task Cards – divides imaging and display functions Primary Monitor Task Cards Examination 3D Secondary Monitor Task Cards TrueD 3D (option Fused Vision) 3D (extension) Viewing Subtask Cards – contain groups of parameters controlling different parts of the task Routine – set routine PET scanning parameters Scan – set the PET scanning parameters Recon – set reconstruction parameters for the selected reconstruction job Auto Tasking – setup automated tasks for PET reconstruction, postprocessing, and transferring images Replay – enables the manipulation of PET listmode data to reconstruct static, dynamic, or gated images Trigger – allows you to define gates and their respective gating modes Chronicle – displays a list of activities that are performed Status Bar – contains examination specific information, warnings, messages, application icons, and storage capacity icons Summarize the function of the PET Cine display PET Cine Display – a Maximum Intensity Projection (or MIP) image provides a visual representation of the selected reconstruction job Note: the MIP image is not intended for diagnosis Select the link to view/print your review material before proceeding to the final quiz.  The syngo interface uses task cards to divide imaging and display functions. The active task card appears highlighted. When you change tasks cards, the menu at the top of the window changes to correspond to the selected task card. The syngo Acquisition Workplace displays task cards on both monitors. The primary monitor (right side) has the following task cards: Examination 3D The secondary monitor (left side) has the following task cards: TrueD 3D (option Fused Vision) 3D (extension) Viewing   Task Card Features Learn about the task card features.

To create additional reconstruction jobs, select the Recon job bubble at the top of the Recon subtask card. The Recon subtask card is used to set reconstruction parameters for the selected reconstruction job. To create additional reconstruction jobs, select the Recon job bubble at the top of the Recon subtask card. 4Auto Tasking Subtask Card Use the Auto Tasking subtask card to set up automated tasks for PET reconstruction, postprocessing, and transferring images. For some parameters, the selected protocol determines the default settings. The Auto Tasking subtask card is used to set up automated tasks for PET reconstruction, post-processing, and transferring images. For some parameters, the selected protocol determines the default settings.5Replay Subtask Card Replay enables the manipulation of PET listmode data to reconstruct static, dynamic, or gated images.  Select the replay type from the Replay Type drop-down menu in the Replay subtask card within the PET chronicle. Available replay types include: Static Dynamic Gated Static + Gated Note: Only respiratory gated exams support the Static + Gated replay type The Replay Subtask card enables the manipulation of PET listmode data to reconstruct static, dynamic, or gated images. Select the replay type from the Replay Type drop-down menu in the Replay subtask card within the PET chronicle. Available replay types include: · Static · Dynamic · Gated and · Static + Gated Note that only respiratory gated exams support the Static + Gated replay type 6Trigger Subtask Card The Trigger subtask card allows you to define gates and their respective gating modes. The Trigger subtask card can be defined for the following types of examinations: Single Phase Cardiac Multiphase Cardiac Single Phase Respiratory Multiphase Respiratory CardioFreeze Dual CardioFreeze Single Note: Trigger subtask card parameters and controls change depending on whether the subtask card displays before the scan or after the scan. Parameters and controls can also change depending on single or multiphase mode, the units, the external triggering system, and other factors. ​The Trigger subtask card allows you to define gates and their respective gating modes. The Trigger subtask card can be defined for the following types of examinations: ·Single Phase Cardiac, ·Multiphase Cardiac, ·Single Phase Respiratory, ·Multiphase Respiratory, ·CardioFreeze Dual, and ·CardioFreeze Single Note that the trigger subtask card parameters and controls change depending on whether the subtask card displays before the scan or after the scan. Parameters and controls can also change depending on single or multiphase mode, the units, the external triggering system, and other factors. The Status Bar is located at the bottom of the Task Card display. It contains the following information: Left - Examination specific information Center - Warnings, messages, and application icons Right - Storage capacity icons     Status Bar Icons Learn about status bar icons. Element HTMLExamination Specific InformationWarnings and MessagesStorage Capacity Sound File Audio ScriptThe image below provides a closer look at the Status Bar and the different types of information that is contained within the status bar.  The PET Cine Display feature is located under the Options menu. It is a MIP generated image. This visual representation is not intended for diagnosis purposes. Each frame represents an intensity projection from a different angle.    PET Cine Display Selections Learn about PET Cine display selections. Element HTML(1)(2)(3)(4)(5) Cine playback window displays a rotating MIPs image constructed from individual frames. Use the Pause button to pause the rotation of the MIP image. Displays the current frame rate.  Displays the width (W) and center (C) window.  Use the pulldown menu to select the LUT applied to the image. Sound File Audio ScriptOne is the Cine playback window displays a rotating MIPs image constructed from individual frames. Two is the Pause button which is used to pause the rotation of the MIP image. Three displays the current frame rate. Enter a new value to change the rate or use the up/down buttons to advance the frame rate in single frame increments. Four displays the width (W) and center (C) window. The width value is the range of grayscale values displayed. The smaller the width the greater the contrast. The center value is the midpoint of the grayscale at the midpoint of the window range and therefore the brightness level of the image.  Five is a pulldown menu used to select the LUT applied to the image.
