GDV Screening The program GDV Screening is designed for analysis of functional state of subjects by calculation of complex GDV parameters of organs and body systems and for their comparison with reference parameters of a practically healthy person The program calculates numerical characteristics such as integral area integral entropy and activation coefficient of separate organs and systems The program has a well developed means to carry our visual analysis of GDV images in sectors referring to the selected organ or body system and also for monitoring the numerical parameters corresponding to these sectors To carry out the analysis you need to load into the program static GDV images of 10 fingers taken with and without special filter The demo version makes it possible to work only with built in data the functions of creating loading and saving files of subjects are blocked you also can not load GDV images from disk or start the GDV Capture to capture these files Introduction system requirements Working procedure Working with program GDV Functional State Overview GDV Screening Adding an entry of a new subject data Loading GDV images Capturing GDV images Calibration Noise filtration Pseudocoloring modes Correction of the center and ellipse for the GDV image of finger GDV Image Menu Analysis of functional state of organs and systems System requirements The program can be operated in the following Microsoft Windows
