General Calculations; Calculations Menu - FujiFilm SonoSite Edge II User Manual

Automatic trace results
Depending on the exam type, the results from automatic tracing include the following:
Velocity Time Integral (VTI)
Peak Velocity (Vmax)
Mean Pressure Gradient (PGmean)
Mean Velocity on Peak Trace (Vmean)
Pressure Gradient (PGmax)
End Diastolic Velocity (EDV)
Acceleration Time (AT)
Gate Depth

General Calculations

Within calculations, you can save measurement results to the patient report. You can display and delete
measurements from a calculation. Some measurements can be deleted directly from the patient report
pages. See "Patient reports and worksheets"
WARNING
Note

Calculations menu

The calculations menu contains measurements available for the imaging mode and exam type. After you
perform and save a measurement, the result saves to the patient report. A check mark appears next to the
measurement name in the calculations menu. If you highlight the checked measurement name, the results
appear below the menu. If you repeat the measurement, the results below the menu reflect either the last
measurement or the average, depending on the measurement.
Note
Measurements and Calculations
To avoid misdiagnosis or harming the patient outcome, do not use single
calculations as sole diagnostic criteria. Use calculations in conjunction with other
clinical information.
Calculation packages depend on exam type.
Menu items followed by ellipses (. . .) have subentries.
Cardiac Output (CO)
Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV)
Time Average Mean (TAM)
+/× or Systolic/Diastolic (S/D)
Pulsatility Index (PI)
Resistive Index (RI)
Time Average Peak (TAP)
MDV (Minimum Diastolic Velocity)
