The best of both worlds
• Speed and accuracy of 3D
• Familiarity of 2D workflow

Two methods now available:

• Manual
• Semi-automatic
SonoAVCfollicle Semi-Automated measurement
Manual Method – the workflow

• Obtain volume of ovary • View A-plane as 2D image • Arithmetic volume calculated

• Use parallel shift to navigate through • Measured follicle identified with trace
volume – count and assess size and number  helps reducing errors
• Manually measure follicle (2 • Measurements transferred to report
diameters) – 2 x distance or ellipse
Watch the video
Store volume data – Select the follicles manually
Semi-Automated Method – 2 simple steps

• Obtain volume of ovary • View A-plane as 2D image

• Use parallel shift to navigate through volume –
count and assess size
• Click on follicles to be measured >> automatic
measurement using SonoAVC algorithm
Watch the video • Measurements transferred to report

Store volume data – Select the follicles – semi automated calculation

With New SonoAVCfollicle...

• Enhance workflow – acquire

a volume and work in a
