A - 8 Instructions for Use
Pulsed Wave Doppler Features
ï‚§ Doppler measurements and calculations available for all linear, curved, and phased array
transducers
ï‚§ Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) processing of 32 to 256 points
ï‚§ FFT speed up to 1,920 FFTs per second at the highest sweep speed
ï‚§ Up to four user-selectable transmit frequencies per transducer
ï‚§ Simultaneous 2D-mode and Doppler display and 2D/Doppler with color (Triplex)
ï‚§ User-selectable Doppler update mode
ï‚§ User-adjustable Doppler scale and position controls
 Angle correction of 0° to 89° in one degree increments
ï‚§ Transmit frequencies of 2 to 7.5 MHz
ï‚§ Downshift frequency and high-PRF Doppler
ï‚§ Doppler grayscale and colorization (tint) maps
ï‚§ Spectral invert
ï‚§ User-selectable frequency (kHz) or velocity (m/s) display format
ï‚§ Wall filter selections: 20 Hz to 1,600 Hz
ï‚§ Adjustable Doppler Gate size from 0.1 cm up to 4.0 cm, depending on the transducer
ï‚§ Flow angle correction on real-time or frozen images, with velocity readout update
ï‚§ PRF range from 100 Hz to 52,000 Hz
ï‚§ Doppler signal processing that enables automatic calculation of waveform statistics during
real-time imaging
ï‚§ Derived waveform Doppler trace function analyzes frozen Doppler spectrum for mean and
maximum velocity information. Waveform may be set to trace above baseline, below
baseline, or both.
ï‚§ Doppler audio output while in Doppler cursor mode
 Doppler CINE control feature — up to 30 seconds of Doppler data can be stored
ï‚§ Five sweep speed selections
ï‚§ Gain of 0 dB to 90 dB in one decibel increments
Steerable Continuous Wave Doppler
ï‚§ Steerable continuous wave Doppler for phased array transducers
