A 3D image can be rendered or constructed from the cine data
collected during a normal scan by using a process called MIP
(Maximum/Minimum Intensity Projection).
When the scan data is properly collected MIP images can be
used to display vascular structure using the Advanced Velocity
Maps. MIP imaging is not a real-time function, but a
post-processing function.
This 3DvieW option is designed for qualitative information only
and has no provision for any measurement or computation
ability.
No specific reconstruction resolution or accuracy is provided or
claimed for this option.
Since positional information of the original scan is not available,
all measurement functions cannot be performed on a MIP
image. Information concerning the front or back of the MIP
image may be uncertain.
Caution should be taken when viewing the MIP image due to
the fact that the algorithm used in the MIP process may
produce a skewness to the MIP image displayed.
NOTE: Consider all of the above cautions when using MIP
images to evaluate a patient. MIP images should not be used
for quantitative information but a qualitative supplement to all
other diagnostic data collected for that patient.
