Hi,

Through the PLUS toolkit I connect an US scanner with 3D slicer. The image I receive includes the US image plus all text and graphics included on the screen of the scanner, however I would like to display only the ultrasound image. Is there any way to specify the FOV of the live US image that I want to visualize?

Thank you in advance!

You might want to check out the **ClipRectangleOrigin** and **ClipRectangleSize** attributes in Plus:

Thanks! 😃 I tried before with **ClipRectangleOriginClipping** and **ClipRectangleSizeClipping** and it didn’t work, but it does work when I use **ClipRectangleOrigin** and **ClipRectangleSize** instead.

Yeah, there was a issue on the page that appended **Clipping** on the back of **ClipRectangleOrigin**. It should be fixed now.
