ClarifyVE Clarify vascular enhancement technology, used to reduce artifacts in 2D-mode images.
ï‚§ Press the control to enable or disable Clarify VE.
ï‚§ Rotate the control to set the Clarify VE level of flow information to add to the image.
Note: For systems without a touch screen, press the soft key to enable or disable Clarify VE
and rotate the scroll wheel to set the level of flow.
SieClear/
Advanced
SieClear
Activates SieClear/Advanced SieClear multi-view spatial compounding, used to reduce
speckle and enhance tissue differentiation in 2D-mode images.
ï‚§ Available settings: Transducer-dependent
Note: If you activate color when Advanced SieClear is enabled, the system changes the
compounding level to 3 if the current setting is higher than 3.
Note: For systems without a touch screen, the selection is on the LED panel.
DTCE Dynamic Tissue Contrast Enhancement
Reduces speckle from the image. The selected DTCE level determines the amount of
enhancement the system performs.
ï‚§ Off
ï‚§ Low
ï‚§ Medium
ï‚§ High
Note: For systems without a touch screen, the selection is on the LED panel: Dynamic TCE.
DTO Dynamic Tissue Optimization
Adjusts levels of gain compensation for cardiac applications.
ï‚§ Off
ï‚§
CTI Custom Tissue Imaging
Optimizes the 2D image by adjusting the speed of sound.
