Observe the real-time display of mechanical and thermal indices (MI/TI) at all times.
In addition to the adjustment of the transmit level, adjustment of the following imaging functions and/or controls may
aect the acoustic output:
• Switching of each mode (B / M / CFM / PDI / 2D-TDI / SCF / PW / CW / PW-TDI / Update / Simul. / Full / Split)
• B-mode parameter settings (Depth / Zoom / Focus Position / Focus Pattern / Frequency / THI / Density / Trapezoid
/ Compound / FOV)
• M-mode parameter settings (Sweep Speed)
• Color Flow- / Power Doppler- / 2D-TDI- / SCF-mode parameter settings (Scale / C ROI Position, Size / Frequency /
Temporal / Density / Steer)
• PW Doppler- / CW Doppler- / PW-TDI-mode parameter settings (Scale / Gate Position, Size / Frequency)
• Eastography (Frequency / Density / Pressurization Speed)
• New patient
• Selecting Preset
• Freeze
• Screen Saver
• Power ON/OFF
• Gel Pad Use
