GE LOGIQ V2 User Guide

Optimizing the Image
LOGIQ V2/LOGIQ V1 – User Guide 2-5
Direction 5610736-100 Rev. 9
Color Flow Mode Controls
Color Flow Mode and Color M-Mode are Doppler Modes
intended to add color-coded qualitative information concerning
the relative velocity and direction of fluid motion within the
B-Mode or M-Mode image.
NOTE: Color Flow Mode is an option for LOGIQ V1.
Table 2-2: Color Flow Mode Controls
Control Bioeffect Description/Benefit
Flow Selection Yes In the Lower Extremity Vein (LEV) and Abdominal applications, you
can quickly select the flow state via a shortcut on the Color Flow
Mode menu.
Gain No Gain amplifies the overall strength of echoes processed in the
Color Flow window or spectral Doppler timeline.
Scale (Velocity
Scale)
Yes Increases/decreases the Scale on the color bar.
Wall Filter No Filters out low flow velocity signals. It helps get rid of motion
artifacts caused from breathing and other patient motion.
Size/Position Yes Adjust size and position of the color window.
Invert (Color Invert) No Lets you view blood flow from a different perspective, e.g., red
away (negative velocities) and blue toward (positive velocities).
You can invert a real-time or frozen image.
NOTE: Invert reverses the color map, NOT the color PRF.
Baseline No Changes the Color Flow or Doppler spectrum baseline to
accommodate higher velocity blood flow. Minimizes aliasing by
displaying a greater range of forward flow with respect to reverse
flow, or vice versa.
Baseline adjusts the alias point. The default baseline is at the
midpoint of the color display and at the midpoint of the color bar
reference display.
Angle Steer Yes You can slant the ROI of the Color Flow linear image left or right to
get more information without moving the probe. The Angle Steer
function only applies to linear probes.
Accumulation No Accumulation enhances the flow in an image.
Color Flow Line
Density
Yes Optimizes the Color Flow frame rate or spatial resolution for the
best possible color image.
Map No Allows you to select a specific color map. After you have made your
selection, the color bar displays the resultant map.
Map Compress No Change the gradation of color map.
Threshold No Limits color flow overlay to low level echoes inside vessel walls.
Helps minimize color `bleeding' outside vessel walls.
Frame Average No Averages color frames.
