syngo Dynamic Evaluation
Each time you make a change to the original data set (by removing images, and/or defining a new baseline image) your system recalculates the parameter images based on the existing images.
–The average image is an averaged addition of all pixels at each pixel location across the images of the tomo segment.
–MIP image: Parameter image where each pixel is the maximum value of all images at that pixel location. The image data is checked pixel by pixel. The pixels with the maximum intensity are displayed in an image.
–Time to Peak image: Parameter image where each pixel indicates the period of time (in tenths of a sec- ond) from the time when the first image was acquired (Delay = 0) or the time when the contrast was injected (Delay > 0) to the time when the high- est CT value is reached at that pixel location. The longer the time period until the peak CT value is reached, the brighter the pixels.
With a Time to Peak image, for example, you can easily detect structures in which the contrast did not spread as fast as in comparable structures.
Hint: The time to peak (in seconds) at the cursor posi- tion in the Time to Peak image is the CT value displayed in the lower right corner divided by 10.
