FMD Studio can work in two modalities: "FMD" and "Vasodilation". The two modalities differs in how the timeline of the examination is organized.


In FMD modality, the timeline is divided into three parts:

  1. Baseline, where the software computes the baseline diameter and the shear-rate diameter.
  2. Ischemia, which is not used for the analysis.
  3. Vasodilation, where the software computes the maximum diameter, the recovery diameter, the maximum shear-rate and the area under the curve of the shear-rate.


In Vasodilation modality, the timeline is divided into two parts:

  1. Baseline, where the software computes the baseline diameter and the shear-rate diameter.
  2. Vasodilation, where the software computes the maximum diameter, the maximum shear-rate and the area under the curve of the shear-rate.


The time length of the timeline parts can be set in the Time Tab of the Control Panel.
