Adaptive Flow Selects an optimal color flow frequency and focal depth
and adjusts the PRF based on the size and location of
the color flow window. (See “Using Color Imaging” on
page 7-70.)
Colorize Optimizes contrast resolution by activating the current
colorization map, and overlaying the grayscale image.
To change the active map, turn the color rotary control
just under the Colorize touch control.
LGC Touch control that turns the Lateral Gain Controls on
and off.
Map Changes the color flow map used for real-time and
looping images. Maps represent conventions and flow
characteristics assigned to the selected BART (Blue
Away, Red Toward) or RABT (Red Away, Blue
Toward) map.
Map Invert Switches between the BART (Blue Away, Red Toward)
and the RABT (Red Away, Blue Toward) color map
conventions.
Packet Selects the color flow packet size S (small), M
(medium), or L (large). This determines how the
system samples and processes color flow information.
Not available in Tissue Doppler mode.
Persist Adjusts the amount of color frame averaging, which
can give a smoother appearance.
