To display a Vpeak measurement
1. Perform segment scoring as described on page 7-18.
When performing scoring in a view from a peak level, the
Vpeak measurement button (V) is displayed in the
corresponding diagram.
2. In the Scoring diagram, press V.
The cursor is changed to sampling area and the scored
peak views are updated showing:
• A diagram with the current segment highlighted (scoring
bullet with a ring) and the segment's velocity cutoff
(Figure 7-11).
• Color-coded velocity in tissue. The color-coding
convention is as follow:
- Green: Velocities above threshold value + 5%
- Yellow: Velocities near threshold (+/- 5% interval)
- White: Velocities below threshold value - 5%
• A result window to display tissue velocity profile, shown
when moving the sampling area in the view.
3. In the 2D sector, place the sampling point over the wall area
corresponding to the current segment (shown as the
highlighted segment in the diagram).
A tissue velocity profile for the actual segment is generated
in the Result window (Figure 7-11).
4. Use Segment Select to analyze the other segments in the
peak view,
Or
Select another scoring bullet in the diagram in one of the
peak views.
