5-10 Image Optimization 
5.3  M Mode Image Optimization 
5.3.1  Basic Procedures for M Mode Imaging 
1.  Select a high-quality image during B mode scanning, and adjust to position the area 
of interest in the center of the B mode image. 
2.  Press <M> on the control panel, and roll the trackball to adjust the sampling line. 
3.  Press <M> on the control panel again or <Update> to enter M mode. You can then 
observe the tissue motion along with the anatomical images of B mode. During the 
scanning process, you can also adjust the sampling line accordingly when necessary. 
4.  Adjust the image parameters to obtain optimized images. 
5.  Perform other operations (e.g., measurement and calculation) if necessary. 
If “Sampling Line Displaying” is selected, then the screen will display the sampling line all 
the time and pressing <M> one will lead to entering M mode directly. See “5.1.3 Quickly 
Saving Image Settings” chapter for details. 
 
5.3.2  M Mode Image Parameters 
  In M mode scanning, the image parameter area in the top-right corner of the screen 
displays the real-time parameter values as follows: 
Parameter F D G  V  DR 
Meaning  Frequency  Depth  M Gain  M Speed  M Dynamic Range 
 
  During M mode imaging, menus for B mode and M mode are displayed on the touch 
screen at the same time. You can switch between the 2 modes by clicking the mode 
tabs. 
  During M mode scanning, the frequency, depth, focus position and acoustic power of 
the probe are synchronous with that of B mode. 
  Adjustment of the depth, focus position or TGC to the B mode image will lead to 
synchronous changes in the M mode image.
