measurement.
7. Press the middle trackball button to complete the measurement.
NOTE
The measurement automatically completes if you unfreeze the image, change modes, or enter
a report.

Measuring Then Labeling

The measure-then-label method of obtaining results uses caliper controls for making
measurements, without first having to select measurement labels. These measurements are
not explicitly associated with a report region and do not appear in the report unless associated
with a measurement. You can assign these measurements to labels on an as-needed basis.
After making a measurement, you can choose whether to assign the value to a label.
NOTE
The measurement will be lost if you unfreeze the image or change modes before you assign a
label to it.

Ending an Exam

Each time you finish an exam, you must end the exam to save images, reports, and other exam
data. You can end an exam in the current exam display or with the current exam open in the
Review display. You cannot end a paused exam while in the Patient Directory.
