Gray Map
Tint
Adjusts the current post processing, either grayscale or
tinted.
Dynamic
Range
The Dynamic Range, or log compression, adjusts how
signal intensities are converted to brightness. A high
dynamic range will display more shades of gray, while a
low dynamic range will display fewer shades of gray and a
more contrasty Doppler display.
Sweep
Speed
Sweep adjusts the sweep speed of the Doppler strip.
Options of Slow, Low, Med., High and Fast are available.
Upward presses increase sweep speed. Downward
presses decrease sweep speed.
Strip Size
Changes the relative size of the Doppler strip compared to
the reference image. Full, Large, Med. and Small are
available.
Volume
Volume adjusts the audio volume of the Doppler strip. This
can be adjusted in pre-Doppler to set the initial volume
upon invoking Doppler acquisition.
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
sensitivity in the Doppler display and improved penetration,
but the ALARA principle should be followed in actual
clinical situations.
