Introduction

Measurements and calculations derived from ultrasound
images are intended to supplement other clinical procedures
available to the attending physician. The accuracy of
measurements is not only determined by the system accuracy,
but also by use of proper medical protocols by the user. When
appropriate, be sure to note any protocols associated with a
particular measurement or calculation. Formulas and
databases used within the system software that are associated
with specific investigators are so noted. Be sure to refer to the
original article describing the investigator's recommended
clinical procedures.

General Guidelines

Any measurement can be repeated by selecting that
measurement again from the Sub-Menu.
The system will retain as many as 8 measurements, but the
summary report retains only the last 3 measurements of each
type.
The 3 report page measurements can be averaged and the
average used in other calculations.
