Not Visualized Vessels
The Venous LE, Arterial LE, and Abdominal Aorta worksheets provide users with an easy method to mark vessels as “not visualized”. This functionality can be used to indicate that a vessel was looked for but was not visualized.
Note: “Not visualized” should not be used in the same capacity as an “inconclusive” result. Please use the observations dropdown fields to mark vessels “inconclusive”. |
To use this feature, navigate to any of the supported worksheets and find the eye icon, which is located to the right of the vessel label.
This icon toggles between two states, which are shown in the table below.
Icon | State | Description |
inactive | When the icon is inactive, it has no impact whatsoever on your worksheet or report. This is the state you will see by default in the worksheet. | |
active | When the icon is active, it indicates that the vessel was looked for, but was not visualized. It will lock the row of observations for the designated vessel, and will be reflected in the Findings statements, as well as the study report. |
The eye icon will default to an inactive state.
Marking a vessel as “not visualized”:
Click on the inactive eye icon (). The icon will now be in an active state (
). This will clear and lock the entire row of observations (dropdowns) for the vessel.
To see this reflected in your Findings statements, click Generate All Findings. The statements will now reflect that the vessel was not visualized.
In the study report, vessels marked “not visualized” will now appear in the observations and measurements table as N.V. or Not visualized.
To remove a vessel’s status of “not visualized”:
Click on the active eye icon (). It will now be in an inactive state (
), and the row of observations will no longer be locked.
To see this reflected in your Findings statements, click Generate All Findings. The statements will no longer reflect that the vessel was marked “not visualized”.
