CIVA Tip :
Amplitude Measurement Tool |
|
|
CIVA
10.0 provides a new tool to make efficient amplitude
measurements on images. Most commercial tools provide
such a possibility but in square areas.
| |
 |
 |
 |
| In the image above,
it seems difficult to make
an efficient measurement with
a square around the tip echo (where cursors cross)! |
CIVA allows the user to create a free multi point
area as shown above, by clicking on the button  in "data tools" available in title bars
for all images, . |
A cross indicates the
position of the maximum amplitude point in this area and a box
appears and gives all available information. |
Moreover, by double
clicking on the area contour, the contour shape can easily be
modified. This can be applied on Bscans, Cscans and so
on.
