Slice alignment is used to identify the long axis of the left
ventricle, the three standard apical views and the
atrio-ventricular plane. Slice alignment performed and approved
before running 4D Auto LVQ is used by default, otherwise the
slice alignment is performed automatically. If necessary the auto
alignment can be further adjusted as follows:
1. Tilt and/or translate the apical views using the controls on
the panel or the trackball until the left ventricle is centered to
the center axis.
2. Rotate the apical views using the controls on the panel or
the trackball until the standard views are displayed.
Auto alignment is not available with transesophageal
acquisitions, only manual alignment as described in
'Alignment – Transesophageal acquisition' on page 6-22.
See page 6-21 for more information on Slice alignment.
