Editing a Lesion in a Vessel Diagram

Introduction

When you edit a lesion, you can change the length of the lesion both proximally and distally.

Click the lesion.
Click a red point in the lesion and reposition as needed.
Synapse displays points at the intersection of bifurcation or trifurcation vessels.
Do any of the following:

If you want to do this ...	Complete these steps ...
Change the length of a lesion.	Click and drag the endpoint to the preferred length. Note: If you cross a vessel branch or segment boundary, Synapse adds an edit point to the lesion, assuming the intersecting segment is not disabled for any reason. This endpoint indicates a vessel bifurcation or trifurcation.
Extend a lesion into a bifurcation.	Click and drag the red point into bifurcation.
Extend the lesion into the third branch of the trifurcation.	Click and drag the red points into the trifurcation.
Delete an extended lesion without affecting the primary lesion.	Click and drag the edit point of the extended lesion back to its origination point.
Move a lesion or stent (with an underlying lesion) to a vessel segment.	See Moving a Lesion.
Display segment properties for a lesion that spans multiple segments.	Click each segment within the lesion.
Delete the lesion through the properties panel.	See Deleting Vessel Diagram Figures.

When you extend lesions into a bifurcation or trifurcation, Synapse updates the original lesion and callout with the updated segment names.

However, the extended lesion remains associated with the primary lesion. If you delete the primary lesion, the extension is also deleted.
