*COMING SOON TO D4WEB* MediaWeb PACS: Measure Annotations

 When the measurement annotation  tool is clicked the following options are displayed

Measure Annotations

1. Measure straight line – measure a single segment line

   1. Select the tool

   2. Single left click on the starting point

   3. Move to the end point of the measurement and single left click

   4. The measurement will be shown

      

   5. Repeats steps 1b to 1d if any further measurements are needed

   6. When finished de-select the tool

2. Measure polyline – measure a multi-segment line

   1. Select the tool

   2. Single left click the starting point

   3. Move the mouse to each intermediate point and single left click

   4. At the last point double left click

   5. The measurement will be shown

      

   6. Repeat steps 2b to 2e if any further measurements are needed

   7. When finished de-select the tool

3. Calibrate by line – allows an images resolution to be set (if necessary), requires something of known length to be used as the basis for the resolution
   N.B. – the result will only be as accurate as the calibration

   1. Select the tool

   2. Single left click at the starting point of the known measurement
      
      

   3. Move the mouse to the end of the known measurement and single left click

   4. Enter the known length of the line drawn to calibrate the image

   5. The following is the result using the new resolution

      1. This is entering the length of the line drawn to set the calibration i.e. 4mm
         
         

      2. This shows the line used for calibration
         
         

4. Measure angle – measures a simple angle

   1. Select the tool

   2. This requires three single left mouse clicks to reach the end point

      1. The first is at the end of one the legs that defines the angle

      2. The second is at the apex of the two legs i.e. the point of the angle
         
         

      3. At the last point double left click

   3. Repeat step 4.b for and subsequent angles, if needed
