6.4.2 M Mode Image Parameters
Gain
To adjust the gain of M mode image, the real-time gain value is displayed in the image parameter
area.
Increasing the gain will brighten the image and you can see more received signals. However, noise
may also be increased.
Display Format
To set the display format of B mode image and M mode image.
Adjust according to the actual situation and obtain a desired analysis through comparison.
Speed
This function is used to set the scan speed of M mode imaging, and the real-time speed value is
displayed in the image parameter area.
Tint Map
This function provides an imaging process based on color difference rather than gray distinction.
Gray Map
Adjusting grayscale contrast to optimize the image.
Edge Enhance
This function is used to increase image profile, so as to distinguish the image boundary.
Larger edge enhance may lead to noise increase.
Dynamic Range
Adjusts contrast resolution of an image, compresses or expands gray display range. The real-time
dynamic range value will be displayed on the image parameter area on the top of the screen.
M Soften
This feature is used to process the scan lines of M images to reject noise, making the image details
to be clearer.
Dual
To enter the Dual-split display mode, and to switch between the windows.
6.5 Color M Mode (CM)
To know the cardiac motion state, CM is overlaid with flow based on M mode, which is more
sensitive to the instantaneous signal changes. Then, it shows the diagnosis information in detail.
6.5.1 CM Image Scanning
Perform the following procedure:
1. To enter CM mode:
– In B+M Mode, tap [Color].
– In B+Color, B+ Color+ PW mode, tap [M].
2. Tap [Image] to open the image menu. Adjust the parameters to optimize the image.
