-
Acclarix LX9 Series Diagnostic Ultrasound System User Manual Imaging 5.3.3. HPRF Conventional PW Doppler scales are limited by the Nyquist limit. High Pulse Repetition Frequency (HPRF) allows the system to exceed the Nyquist limit by having multiple Doppler pulses in the body at the same time. In HPRF imaging, multiple Doppler gates are displayed since the multiple Doppler pulses could be giving information from different depths.
-
Acclarix LX9 Series Diagnostic Ultrasound System User Manual Imaging Invert Normally, signals above the baseline are positive velocities (moving toward the transducer). However, when Invert is pressed then negative velocities are above the baseline. Invert does not affect the baseline position.
