Once you have created a tissue by using the various tissue definition tools, you can apply the tissue on the MIP or Volume Rendered image. You can add or remove a specific tissue from the tissue. When you build a tissue, it is possible you will add or remove structures many times until you achieve the results you want.
When you remove a tissue, the blue pixels defined on the MPR reference images are removed from the MIP or Volume Rendered image. For example, use this process to remove bone structures.
NOTE: You must determine if the type of tissue you are going to define will be added or removed.

To save a tissue, you must accept it. When you accept a tissue, the tissue definition process is complete.
When a tissue is accepted, the following occurs:
The application returns to the regular Angio view, with the defined tissue applied on the MIP image.
The accepted tissue appears in the Patient Mini-Archive, where it can be dragged to the MIP image and applied.
The accepted tissue appears in the MIP Tissue List under the View menu.

The tissue is saved in the Patient Mini-Archive, but is not permanently saved until the end of the session. |

You can define several tissues and apply them separately or together on the MIP image.
Drag the relevant tissue from the Patient Mini-Archive onto the MIP image.

, the blue pixels defined on the MPR reference images are added to the MIP or Volume Rendered image. When you define the first tissue, selecting "add” keeps the tissue while removing the rest of the MIP image. For example, use this process to define and keep tissues of blood vessels.
