11.1.4.2 PG (Pressure Gradient) Measurements
11.1.4.2.1 PG max (Pressure Gradient maximum)
1.
To measure the maximum velocity and the maximum pressure gradient in Spectral-
Doppler mode, select the [PG max] item on the menu area. A cursor appears on the
screen.
2. Move the cursor to the pressure gradient point and press the right or left trackball key
[Set] to fix the marker.
11.1.4.2.2 PG mean (Pressure Gradient mean)
1. To measure the mean pressure gradient in Spectral-Doppler mode, select the [PG mean]
item on the menu area. A cursor appears on the screen.
2. Move the cursor to the beginning of the waveform (Vmax) and press the right or left
trackball key [Set] to fix the marker. Begin trace.
Note
To re-adjust the traced line, press the upper trackball key [Undo] repeatedly.
3. Trace to the end of the waveform (Vd) and press the [Set] key again to fix the mark.
