Transmit Power Display
The transmit power range is from –20 dB to 0 dB. Selecting 0 dB, or 100%, in
combination with other system controls or functions generates the maximum
acoustic intensity and mechanical index for each transducer, where:
I
SPTA.3
: d 720 mW/cm
2
and MI d 1.9
Use the system presets to determine whether the power value displays on
the image screen in decibels, dB, or as a percentage of the maximum
allowable power.
0 dB -3 dB -6 dB -9 dB -12 dB -15 dB -18 dB -21 dB -24 dB
100% 71% 50% 35% 25% 18% 13% 9% 6%
Comparison of decibels to percentages.
When the power level is changed, the system briefly highlights the power
value to indicate the change.
