21
Q

what si surface texture rendering

A
  • enhances the details of a surface
22
Q

what is gradient light rendering

A
  • illuminating giving a depth of impression

- more life like

23
Q

what is important to think about with threshold

A
  • manually adjusted

- importnat info can be eliminated

24
Q

what is a low threshold

A
  • fetal face
25
Q

what is a high threshold

A
  • eliminates skin look at bony structures
26
Q

what is the electronic scalpel

A
  • removes unwanted structures from an image
  • placenta from face
  • uterine wall
27
Q

what is maximum skeletal or X ray mode

A
  • eliminates weaker signals like soft tissue

- used for some syndromes

28
Q

what is inversion

A
  • hypoechoci structures turned into solid structure
  • digital cast
  • gray scale removed
  • cystic areas echogenci
29
Q

what is the obstetrical application of inversion technique

A
  • fetal ventricles
  • dilated fetal urinary tract
  • heart and vessels
  • feal stomaach
30
Q

what are the gynaecological application of inversion technique

A
  • saline filled uterus
  • PCOS
  • hydrosalpinx
  • follicular monitoring
31
Q

what is glass body or transparent and was is it used with

A
  • makes tissue transparent to visualize vessels better

- used with power doppler

32
Q

what is VOCAL

A
  • virtual organ computer aided analysis

- software program used to measure the volume of an irregular object

33
Q

how does VOCAL allow contour mapping of a structure

A
  • data set rotates 180º around fixed central axis
  • tracing object contour
  • contours outlined
  • system recreates a model of all the contours
34
Q

what is the 3D vs 4D

A
  • static
  • single sweep through an area
  • volume is stored and viewed in many formats
35
Q

what is the difference between 4D vs 3D

A
  • liver or real time

- transducer elements continuously sweeping back and forth

36
Q

what are some of the applications fo 3D/4D in gyne

A
  • congenital uterine anomalies
  • IUD location
  • endo lesions
  • origin of adnexal masses
  • sonohysterography
  • infertility evaluation
37
Q

what will a bicornuate uterus look like on 3D

A
  • two separate uterine cornea on a coronal imaging plane

- external fundal indentation >1cm needed for diagnosis

38
Q

what is the purpose of a sonohysterogram

A
  • volume of uterus obtained

- 3D reconstruction improves visualization of polyps, fibroids, adhesions

39
Q

what is the best view to asses IUD location.

A
  • coronal view in 3D
40
Q

what thickness of endo is hard reconstruct

A
  • <5mm
41
Q

what is the Z technique

A
  • obtain 3d volume of uterus in sag plane
  • in A plane place reference dot in centre of endo
  • using Z ration known to align endo so parallel to horizontal plane
  • in B plane place reference dot in centre of endo
  • using Z rotation known to straighten the trans image so end parallel to horizontal plane
  • C plane should now display a coronal image of endo
  • use z to rotate image so it is in normal plane
