would like to understand idealscope and ASET better

[Kelli]

Let me preface by saying I am 100% happy with my diamond and will not take offense to honest input about my images, but I''ve never really understood how they are read. I''ve seen many idealscope pictures on here and couldn''t say whether or not they are good, unless it''s REALLY obvious. For example, I''ve seen some examples of diamonds that (to me anyway) have idealscope images that look just like mine and they are told they will have visible leakage. I had mine recut at WF and unfortunately didn''t think to ask them for any "before" images, but I know that IRL I saw the leakage before, and now I don''t. The "numbers" report on mine says ACA, the idealscope and ASET images do not. Just to help me understand better, should this diamond have any visible leakaage to the human eye? Either way, I don''t see it, but I''ve been wondering how to read these for a while and would like to understand better. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

These might help explain. There is a lot to read on this website.
