9.1 Starting M Mode
Press the M mode key during the real time scan with B/CDI/TDI mode
to activate the B+M/CDI+M/TDI+M duplex mode.
Only phased array probes (2P1) support CDI+M and TDI+M modes.
Press the M mode key again to deactivate the M mode.
Initially the M mode cursor line (a straight line across the ultrasound image) is
inserted at the center of the 2D ultrasound image. The M mode trace (Figure 9.1)
will not be active until the UPDATE key is pressed.
