Plotting:
Dome to symphysis pubis.
Considerations:
- Set phase A-P and compensate for aliasing.
- Saturation band inferior and superior to our FOV can help reduce artifacts.
- Perform as 2 slabs.
Plotting:
Dome through symphysis pubis.
Considerations:
- Set phase H-F and compensate for aliasing.
- Saturation band inferior and superior to our FOV can help reduce artifacts.
