Acclarix LX9 Series Diagnostic Ultrasound System User Manual
Frequency allows selection of the fundamental or harmonic
frequencies used for imaging. The Harmonic option must be
invoked to access the harmonic frequencies. Frequency
selection is available during live imaging.
The Harmonic control invokes and exits harmonic imaging.
While in harmonic imaging the control is highlighted and an „H‟ is
displayed in the B-mode frequency field. Depending on the
transducer there may be multiple harmonic frequencies.
Spatial Compounding combines images fired from multiple
angles to reduce speckle, reduce shadow artifacts, and
enhance contrast. Spatial compounding is an on/off control.
Focus Number adjusts the number of foci is displayed. As the
number of foci increases, image uniformity across depth will
increase, but the frame rate will decrease.
Focus Position adjusts the depth of the focus or foci. Upward
presses move the focus shallower, regardless of the U/D invert
status of the image.
Gray Map adjusts the post processing map used on the B-mode
image. In general, higher map numbers correspond to more
contrast in the image.
The Colorize control adds a color tint to the B-mode image.
