Exporting Contrast Mode data
f To export contrast region data:
1. From the Contrast Region or Cardiac Region chart window, click Export.
2. In the export dialog box, select the destination directory, name the file, select
the file type, and click Save.
The data can be saved as one of the following file types:
CSV Comma separated values, for import into a database or spreadsheet.
TIFF Vector based graphic.
BMP Bitmap graphic.
Cardiac region measurement
The Cardiac Region measurement traces a region of interest in a Contrast Mode
frame, consisting of two separate traces. The system then measures the difference
in area between the outer trace and the inner trace.
f To place a single cardiac region measurement:
1. Click the cardiac region button .
2. Click along the boundary of the outer wall of the myocardium to add caliper
points.
3. After you add three caliper points, the system creates a simple contour that
connects the points. You can add caliper points by clicking anywhere along
the contour. You don't need to add these points in a particular direction, the
way you should when you add the first three points.
4. Right-click to complete the outer wall contour.
