Harmonics Plus Boosts BMode image sensitivity and provides
enhanced Harmonics when the s3 transducer is in
Harmonic Fusion settings 1, 3, and 4. May reduce the
display frame rate.
Magnify Increases or decreases the magnification factor of an
image in Zoom or Zoom Preview modes.
LGCs (Lateral
Gain Controls)
Each of the eight sliders adjusts the amplification of
returning signals within a specific lateral 2D/BMode
image area. Available only with sector and curvilinear
array transducers.
Postproc Affects the softness and brightness of grayscale images
stored in memory, according to visual preference. The
curve you select affects both real-time and frozen
images, but does not affect video playback images.

panels. When the control is highlighted, the secondary
touch controls are active.
Soft Echo
Enhance (Touch
Control)
Activates soft echo enhancement imaging, which may
enhance visualization of low-level ultrasound signals
from normal anatomy and pathology. The Soft Echo
Enhance icon reflects the soft echo enhancement
setting and the transducer frequency range. Frequency
Fusion and Harmonic Fusion are unavailable when Soft
Echo Enhance is on.
Soft Echo
Enhance (Rotary
Control)
Select the soft echo enhancement setting when Soft
Echo Enhance is on. Settings A to C automatically
adjust transmit power, persistence, dynamic range, and
