This class enable you to create scout frames from the original images.  One scout frame can be created in each of the directions othogonal to the original frames image plane.  The interface enable you to select where that frame will located.

 

 

Add the "MPR Scout" class in the "Class management"

mode and press "Update DB" to activate the new class.

A new "MPR Scout" mode will be available from the "Mode" menu

 

Each instance of this class will have 3 children:

The frames in their original direction,

Instance selection

Select which of the instances of the class you want to work on.

 

On / Off

You can turn on or off one of the MPR branches.  If for example, you only want the Z-Y plane frames and will not use the original frames, you can set the "X-Y" and "X-Z" to off and the "Z-Y" to on.

 

 

Dir. X-Y

The interface display the frames that are in the original plane. The yellow indicator signals that the frames are to be present in the database tree. For this direction it is always "On".

 

Dir. Z-Y

Display the frames that are in a plane perpendicular to the original frames plane. This new plane is created by rotating the old plane 90 degrees around the "Y" axis. The yellow indicator signals that one frame form this direction is to be present in the database tree. By default, these are "Off".

 

Dir. X-Z

Display the frames that are in a plane perpendicular to the original frames plane. This new plane is created by rotating the old plane 90 degrees around the "X" axis. The yellow indicator signals that one frame form this direction is to be present in the database tree. By default, these are "Off".

 

Restore

Remove any rotations and flips

 

Rotations

Rotate the frames + or - 90 degrees in the select plane (around an axis perpendicular to the current plane).

 

Flips

Rotate the frames 180 degrees around the vertical or horizontal axis of the current plane.

 

Slice preview

You can see a preview of the region of interest applied to each frame. The slider lets you select the posiytion of the new scout frame when it will be created.

 

Update DB
