It is advisable to take regular backups
of your data. New VIRUS threat / System inconsistency / erroneous operations
may cause loss of data. We recommend to take back-ups in a regular interval
and store in any optical media.
Procedure
Start Menu / SONOCARE / SonoCare Backup
and Restore.
Choose the path other than the drive partition
where SONOCARE application is installed.
If SonoCare is installed in C:/ drive then
select partition other than C:/ Drive for safe process.
Copy images folder from C:/Program File/SonoCare/Images.
Paste the folder in the location where
backup database is placed.
By practicing to take backup
regularly not only protects your database from any crash or threat but
also helps you to save you from loosing your database.
IMAGE TRANSFER PROCESS FROM ULTRASOUND
EQUIPMENT
Images from the ultrasound machine can be transferred
to the computer by two procedures:
DICOM (Digital Image Communication in Medicine)
standard of transfer.
Non DICOM (Image Grabber Card) transfer.
DIGIT Technology.
DICOM TRANSFER
Most importantly DICOM transfer
takes place only from the DICOM Standard ultrasound equipment. To get
the benefit of DICOM Image transfer it is mandatory to enable DICOM Mode
in the Ultrasound Equipments. For more detail on DICOM please contact
your ultrasound equipment vendor.
NON DICOM TRANSFER
Images can also transfer through
Image Grabber Card in case of a Non DICOM ultrasound machine. Images can
be grabbed from Ultrasound machine into the computer through capture card
by means of a video cable.
NON DICOM USER (How to transfer images from NON
DICOM Machine?)
Check the output video port in your Ultrasound
machine . This port may be,
S VIDEO PORT
BNC or COMPOSITE video port
