7.3.2. Application Measurements and Calculations

Application Measurements have a pre-defined meaning and can be entered into a report. The
system supports the following application packages, each with its own set of measurements,
calculations and report:
 OB (including multiple fetuses)
 Abd
 Vascular
 Cardiac
 Gynecology
 Small Parts
 Urology
 Pediatric(including Neonatal)
Please see the Advanced User Manual for the complete content of each package.
When you select an application measurement from the touchscreen it will automatically invoke
the type of measurement it needs. For example, if you select "BPD" from the OB application it
will automatically invoke a distance measurement. These measurements generally behave as
described above for generic measurements. However, a final press of the Set key after the
measurement is complete will enter the result into the report.
Some application measurements can have multiple variations. For example, in a twin OB exam
the OB measurements can be done on either fetus. As another example, in Vascular exams several
measurements can be done in a Proximal, Mid, or Distal location. When a measurement has
multiple variations, you will see buttons on the touchscreen that let you pick which variation you
are measuring.
