Recording and Playing Back with a Digital Video
Recorder (DVR)
You can use a DVR to record a patient study on media for later playback. When you start and
then stop a recording session, the DVR creates a title. Each time you pause and then resume
recording during a session, the DVR creates a chapter. A title can consist of multiple chapters.
The DVR assigns a title using the patient's last name and the exam type.
The controls for the DVR recording and playback are located on the ultrasound system control
panel and screen. The ultrasound system also displays DVR status messages on the image
menu and in the list of imaging parameters.
Note: The DVR supports only BD-R and BD-RE disk media. Siemens has qualified media only from
Panasonic and TDK.
