Orientation Provides an option to view the data whether in Radiologist View (face to face) or Neurologist View (mirror). Diagrams are used to show the difference.

With Enhanced quality, smoothing is applied to the image when a voxel is displayed using multiple pixels on the screen. There is no effect on quantification.

Corner and Crosshairs

Corner Info Launches the Corner View Information dialog which controls the information to be displayed on each corner of the slice views.

The Corner View Information is organized into two tabs: one for information shown on the screen view and one for information that will show on the image when it is saved out. The corner information is organized into the four corners of the image as can be seen in the corresponding four editable text areas. These text areas support a combination of regular text input and also field expansion by the use of tokens prefaced by the percent character. As you add tokens a helpful check mark will be shown next to the field indicating that it is included in one of the four corners. We also have added a helpful Expand Parameters button so you may more easily read through the included fields. Also included are three preset buttons for common corner view settings: None, Basic and Advanced. These were determined by Image Analysts to be commonly used templates; which can be configured through the registry settings.

One additional feature is the addition of three customizable corner fields that can be changed via the Save Image and Save Movie dialog. These custom fields are called: SubjectID, TimePoint, and Group. If any of these field parameters are present in the currently selected corner view template then the corresponding editable text fields will show up in the save dialogs. This feature was requested as a time saver when the user is spending a lot of time saving images and needs to make quick label adjustments. Although the use case was specific to these three field names anyone can use these fields for their own custom information; the three names are only mappings from the corner template to these save dialog fields.
