GC091052 Rev. 3
This unit has three types of M-Mode:
• Conventional M-Mode (MM): displays a distance/time plot of
a cursor line in the axial plane of the 2D-image.
• Anatomical M-Mode (AMM): displays a distance/time plot
from a cursor line, which is independent from the axial
plane. AMM is available in grayscale, color, TVI, Tissue
Tracking, Strain rate and Strain modes.
• Curved Anatomical M-Mode (CAMM): displays a distance/
time plot from a free-drawn cursor line. CAMM is available in
grayscale, color, TVI, Tissue Tracking, Strain rate and Strain
modes.
Conventional M-Mode can be combined with Color Mode.
Preparations
1. Connect one of the probes, to the Ultrasound system’s
left-most probe connector.
2. Turn ON the Ultrasound system.
The 2D Mode window is displayed (default mode).
3. Press MM on the Operating Panel to bring up an M-Mode
picture on the screen.
4. Use the trackball to position the cursor over the required
area of the image.
Using M-Mode
Conventional M-Mode

4. Use the trackball to scroll through the data acquired.
Anatomical M-Mode
1. In M-Mode or 2D-Mode Freeze, press AMM on the Touch
panel.
NOTE: Anatomical M-Mode can also be used with previously
acquired digitally stored 2D images. More than one heart
cycle should be stored if performing M-Mode in post
processing.
2. Use the trackball (assigned function: Pos) to position the
cursor over the required area of the image.
