Performing Phased Measurements
If an Analysis Configuration includes phase measurements, you can select a phase measurement from a drop-down list. Synapse groups all the measurements for a stage in a phase.
Phase measurement options depend on site implementation. See your System Administrator for more information.
Prerequisites
- Advanced Reporting (AR) is installed.
- You are launching the Protocol Panel from an AR study with a procedure configured with analysis configuration for phase measurements.
See Using Protocol Panel for additional information in the About This Task section.
Initial Phase Name
- The default initial phase name is Rest. Your System Administrator can change the initial phase name in the Advanced Reporting Configuration Manager.
- If there are multiple analysis configurations matched to a particular study, Synapse uses the initial phase configured in the first analysis configuration group to set the initial phase name.
- In a multiple data source (MDS) environment, Synapse does not display the initial phase label.
Steps
- From the Worklist page, select an AR study and double-click or select Open Viewer.
- Click Protocol Panel
on the Viewer toolbar to open the Protocols Panel. - Choose the phase tab at the top of the Protocol Panel.
- Click a Protocol group in the Protocol Panel to display the protocol steps.
- Select a phase measurement option from the displayed list.
- Position the cursor in the image and draw the protocol measurement.
- Click the next phase tab on the Protocol Panel and add additional measurements.
-
Optional: If you have multiple instances of a measurement, you can choose a specific measurement with the Instance Selector
in the Protocol Panel. See Using Protocol Panel for Instance Selector options.
Results
Synapse displays the phase measurements at the bottom of the image and adds these measurements to the report, if the report is configured to display these measurements.
