4. Evaluation Results

When you click the Start Evaluation button, the system
calculates the planned volume within the evaluation
limits.

The evaluation results are displayed in segment 4. Only
the statistic parameters that are set in the configura-
tion dialog box are calculated. Volume pixels and eval-
uation results are the same color.

The evaluation results and the thick slice images are
both displayed in segment 4. To switch the display,
click the MIP/Result icon.

The evaluation results include general patient informa-
tion, date and time of the evaluation and for each vol-
ume the configured statistic parameters.
