Accessing MPR View
Introduction
MPR view changes a series into reformatted axial, sagittal, or coronal views that Synapse displays. Use the specialized context menu options within the reformatted series.
You can configure your preferred 3D projection when you initially open an MPR series. See Configuring MPR/3D Settings.

Note: |
Use only with CT, MR, NM, and PT modalities. |
