syngo Volume Evaluation
Volume is an evaluation function which allows most
accurate calculation of a volume out of a stack of two-
dimensional images.
This can be done by Volume-of-Interest (VOI) defini-
tion and by limiting the minimum and maximum den-
sity (HU) values for calculation. Different views of the
image data provide fast navigation and easy volume
definition.
Potential applications are volume measurements of a
tumor or organs such as lung and kidney.
To do this, the Volume Evaluation card provides you
with the following features:
• Evaluation on a separate syngo card on the user
interface.
• Calculation of 5 different Volumes is possible in par-
allel.
• For easy navigation, the image data is displayed in 3
different views: coronal, sagittal and transversal.
•Use of syngo functions such as Navigation lines and
dog-ears can be used for fast paging through each
view.
• Transversal thick slice Multi Planar Reformat (MPR),
Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP) or Minimum
Intensity Projection (MinIP) segments are available
for better recognition of the Volume of Interest.
• Zoom & Pan is available for each image segment
which is especially helpful for Volume definition of
smaller structures.
