information about the system software. Changes in setups take effect immediately
and remain in effect until you change them again or load setups from a DVD.
NOTE
The institution name exported with DICOM data always reflects the name shown

system after changing Institution Name in the setups.
Procedures for using setup options and descriptions of settings are included
throughout the Help.

Hiding the Doppler Velocity Minus Sign
You can choose to include only the numeric value of the Doppler velocity
measurements. Doppler velocity is marked as negative (-) when the flow is
moving away from the transducer. When reporting on the measurements, you
may want only the value, not the direction of flow. When hidden, the negative
sign does not appear on the displayed or printed patient reports; however, the
sign is still part of the number and is visible when editing a patient report and is
included in DICOM structured reports exported from the system.
The option to hide the doppler velocity minus sign is available in all calculation
packages except Adult Echo and Pediatric Echo.
NOTE
When Hide Doppler Velocity Minus Sign is enabled, avoid using the Doppler
velocity value displayed in the results and report for manual calculations. The
