Measurement 9-3 
Measurement 
Tools 
Function 
HR 
Measures the time of n (n≤8) cardiac cycles and calculates the heart 
rate in M mode image. 
Velocity 
Calculates the average velocity by measuring the distance and time 
between two points. 
9.2.3  Doppler General Measurements 
Doppler general measurements refer to general measurements on PW/CW mode images. 
The measurements listed below can be performed: 
Measurement 
Tools 
Function 
Time  The time interval between any two points. 
HR 
N intervals (n≤8) are measured to calculate a PW mode derived HR 
value in Beats Per Minute (BPM). 
D Velocity 
On the Doppler mode image, measure velocity, PG (pressure 
gradient) and spectrum correction angle of a point on the Doppler 
spectrum waveform and etc. 
Acceleration 
Measure the velocities of two points and their time interval on the 
Doppler image, and calculates the acceleration, pressure gradient, 
velocity difference and correction angle. 
D Trace 
On the PW mode image, one or several Doppler waveforms are 
traced to obtain speed and PG, etc. 
PS/ED 
Measure the Peak Systolic (PS) velocity and End Diastolic (ED) 
velocity on the Doppler spectrum, and calculates resistance index 
(RI), S/D and correction angle.
