Chapter 41: Acquiring 3D-Mode images
Orienting the transducer
As shown in the following illustration, the long axis of the 3D motor stage must
be aligned in the direction that the transducer travels during data acquisition.

During the 3D data acquisition, the motor stage moves the transducer. Ensure
that the animal under the transducer is flat in relation to the 3D scan direction to
prevent unintended contact with the surface of the subject as the 3D motor stage
moves the transducer.
WARNING: The 3D motor stage could cause a hazard to fingers during
a 3D scan as the motor stage moves. Ensure that fingers are kept away
from the 3D motor stage during a 3D scan.
