5.4 Color Mode Image Optimization
The Color mode is used to detect color flow information, and the color is designed to judge the
direction and speed of blood flow.
Generally, the color above the color bar indicates the flow towards the probe, while the color below
the color bar indicates the flow away from the probe. The brighter the color, the faster the flow
speed, while the darker the color, the slower the flow speed.
5.4.1 Basic Procedures for Color Mode Imaging
1. Select a high-quality image during B mode scanning, and adjust to position the area of interest
in the center of the B mode image.
2. Tap [Color] on the right side of the operating panel to enter Color mode.
3. Change the position and size of the Region of Interest (ROI).
4. Adjust the image parameters during scanning to obtain optimized images.
Tap [Image] to open the image menu. Adjust the parameters to optimize the image.
5. Perform other operations (e.g., measurement and calculation) if necessary.
5.4.2 Color Mode Image Parameters
In Color mode scanning, the image parameter area in the top-left corner of the screen displays
the real-time parameter values as follows:
Pulse Repetition Frequency (PRF)
In Color mode, the acoustic power is synchronous with that of B mode. Adjustment of the depth
to the B mode image will lead to corresponding changes in Color mode image.
