Imaging
Dynamic
Range
The Dynamic Range, or log compression, adjusts how echo
intensities are converted to brightness. A high dynamic range
presents a flatter, less contrasty color display, while a low dynamic
range presents a more contrasty color display. Only available in
PDI/DPDI mode.
Line
Density
Adjusts the line density to optimize the lateral resolution for the best
possible image. The higher the line density, the higher the lateral
resolution, but the lower the frame rate.
Acoustic
power
Adjusts the acoustic output power of the activated transducer. It is
only available in live imaging. Higher acoustic power numbers
correspond to increased color sensitivity and penetration, but the
ALARA principle should be followed in actual clinical situations.
Color Hide
Hides/Shows the Color ROI box.
Velocity
Distribution
Displays the distribution of blood flow velocity in a histogram on the
left of image area.
