Explaining the nerve reslice wizard

With the Nerve Reslice wizard adjust the view of the Nerve Reslice used in the Nerve wizard. Using the wizard, you may add an extra point in between the already present points, add an end point, remove selected points or completely re-indicate the curve.

Add a point or an end point

To add points between existing indicative points or end points to finish off the curve:

1.       Click the Insert a Point Insert-point_16x16.png or Add an End Point action Add-end-point_16x16.png  in the Nerve Reslice Actions group in the Adjust Nerve Reslice wizard.

2.     Click the reslice view to position a new point between two existing points.

3.     A red dot and a connecting line are drawn.

Remove a point

To remove a point:

1.       Select a point. The selected point will be marked with a yellow line.

2.     Click the Remove Selected Point action Remove-selected-point_16x16.png  in the Nerve Reslice Actions group.

3.     The selected point is removed and the curve is adjusted accordingly.

Re-indicate the curve

If the automatically generated panoramic curve is unsatisfactory, re-indicate the curve using the Reindicate Curve action.

1.       Click the Reindicate Curve action Reindicate-curve_16x16.png  in the Nerve Reslice Actions group.

2.     The red dots indicating the flow of the curve disappear.

3.     Point by point indicate the new curve. Immediate on-screen feedback is provided to show how the curve will be drawn.

Note

The curve must be indicated in the correct direction, meaning from the patient’s right side to the left. This means that the dots have to be placed left to right on the screen.

4.     Right-click in the scene, or click [Enter], to finish.
