Acclarix LX9 Series Diagnostic Ultrasound System User Manual
5.8 TDI Mode
Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) mode shows information about low-velocity and high-amplitude tissue
motion, usually used to evaluate cardiac tissue motion. Only Phased transducer supports TDI mode.
There are three types of TDI modes available on this system:
TVI (Tissue Velocity Imaging) mode: shows the speed and direction of tissue motion on
real-time Color image.
TVD (Tissue Velocity Doppler) mode: shows the speed of tissue motion on Strip Doppler
image.
TVM (Tissue Velocity Motion Imaging) mode: shows the cardiac motion through a direct
angle.

In Color mode, press TDI on the left of the touch screen to enter TVI mode, and then press
