Hello,

Could you please help a beginner understand this? After setting velocity limits, a VDP value appears as a percentage in a specific color (green, yellow, or red). What does this abbreviation mean here? How is this calculated? I assume it's best to avoid "yellow" values, correct?

Thanks!

Hi, all parameters and options have tool tips that explain what they are. The vdp is the valid detection probability. It's the percentage of valid (unfiltered ) vectors. Not all studies manage to have a "green value", but usually a good setup gives > 95% of valid vectors.
