5-42 Image Optimization
Description of parameters:
Method
Function: select the image acquisition method.
Selection: Rocked, Linear.
Linear mode: during the sweep, the probe must be kept parallel. The scanning
speed should be constant.
Rocked mode: in this mode, the probe must be moved to a position where you
can clearly see a middle cut of the object you want to scan and render. Tilt the
probe to about 30 degrees until the object you want to scan disappears. Start
the acquisition and tilt the probe over a distance of around 60 degrees until the
object disappears again. During the sweep, the probe may not be moved
parallel, just tilted.
Tip: the speed is related to scanning distance or angle.
Distance
Function: to set the distance the probe covered from one end to the other end
during a linear sweep.
Range: 10-200 mm, in increments of 10 mm.
Angle
Function: to set the angle the probe covered during a fan sweep.
Range: 10-80°, in increments of 2°.

VR parameter adjustment.
Scanning plane and probe movement
Move the probe across the body surface.
The arrow in the figure below indicates the movement of the probe (you can move the
probe in the opposite direction to the arrow.).
