Acoustic Frequen Frame Dynamic
Parameter Gain Depth
Power cy Rate Range

6.4.3 B Mode Imaging Optimization


 Gain

The gain value is displayed on the screen in real time.

Turn Gain knob clockwise to increase the gain, and anticlockwise to decrease it.

Increasing the gain makes the image brighter, and enables the users to observe more

echo signals, but more noise will be generated.

 LGC

The Lateral gain is used to adjust the brightness of the symmetrical area on both sides of

the image area. The entire image area is divided into 8 segments in the horizontal direction,

from left to right, each segment corresponding to an LTC slider. Each LGC slider defines a

range of gains, from bottom to top, from lowest to highest.

When B mode is real-time scanning, press the touch screen 『LGC』to pop up the window;
41
Move the slider vertically by hand or with the trackball, from bottom to top,the gain will

change from low to high;

To make the gain symmetrical and effective, turn on the 『 』, symmetrically the other

side of the slider to adjust synchronously;

Click『Apply』to take effect.

Tip: LGC is suitable for phased array probes.

 TGC

Compensate the attenuation caused by tissue depth increase. Adjust depth gain by

segment.

Adjust by the eight segments of sliders on control panel which respectively correspond to

the segmented image of each depth.

Pull the slider right to increase the gain, imaging in corresponding area turns brighter; while

pull it left to reduce the gain, imaging turns darker.

Adjust the signal gain within a given depth range to make the tissue image echo evenly.

 Extended Imaging

In addition to the linear array probes, other probes can make the window of interest larger or

smaller by adjusting the sector angle.

In addition to the linear array probe, the angle of the sector is displayed in the parameter

display area in degrees (°).

Linear array probe, when the B mode is in real time, press the 【 Angle】 key to turn the

trapezoidal imaging on or off.

Line array probe, when the B mode is in the real-time state, rotate the 【Angle】key to adjust

the B mode image declination;

For other probes, in the B mode, rotate the【Angle】 key to adjust the angle of the B mode

image sector.

Increasing the angle between the sectors, you can see a wider field of view, reduce the angle

between the sectors, and the frame rate becomes faster.

 Focus

42
Adjust the focus of emitting sound beam, and symbol“ ”of corresponding focus zone is

displayed on the left of imaging.

In B mode real-time scanning, rotate the [Focus] knob or adjust 【 】to change the

focus position, press the [Focus] knob, the focus indicator arrow changes color, rotate the

[Focus] knob or adjust 【 】to change the number of focus, in multiple focus. In the

case, press the [Focus] knob, the focus indicator arrow changes color, and rotate the

[Focus] knob or adjust 【 】to change the focus distance.

The contrast and resolution of the image at the focus will increase, resulting in sharper

image information.

The fewer the number of focus, the higher the frame rate.

 Frequency

Different types of probes has different adjustable imaging frequency.

Adjust by the『Frequency』item of the touch screen.

The higher the frequency, the better the near-field resolution, but the penetrating power

decreases.

 Depth

The image depth range is adjustable and varies depending on the probe model.

The depth is adjusted by the 【 】 rocker switch on the control panel.

The greater the depth, the deeper and deeper the tissue is observed; the smaller the depth,

the shallower the observed tissue.

 Dynamic range

Adjust by the 『DynRanCop』item on the touch screen.

The higher the dynamic range value, the more signals are generated to make the image

display brighter. The lower the dynamic range value, the weaker the signal, but the image

particles can be made larger and less dense.

 Persistence

43
Frames average refers to the fact that, take a weighted average of adjacent B images to

remove imaging noises and reserve more tissue information, thus making the images

clearer and softer.

Adjust by the 『Persistence』 item on the touch screen. The larger the value is, the more

obvious the effect will be."0" means that the function is turned off.

Too high a frame correlation value can result in blurred motion tissue, especially fast

moving tissue/structure.

 Line Density

It is the scan line density, which is actually the number of scan lines at the time of

beamforming. The number of lines corresponding to the line density position of different

inspection parts and different probes is different.

Adjust by the 『Density』 item on the touch screen.

The higher the line density, the higher the lateral resolution,the longer the scan time, and

the lower the frame rate.

 Speckle Reduction(SRI)

It is caused by the coherent superposition of the signals returned by the organization. SRI

is an image post-processing function that reduces speckle noise, improves contrast

resolution, and does not obscure structural details.

Adjust by the 『SRI』item on the touch screen. A larger value indicates stronger reduction,

and a "0" indicates that the function is turned off.

The right SRI level makes the image sharper, but the level is too high, which can lead to

blurred images, especially for fast moving organizations.

 Acoustic Power

AcousticPower refers to the power of ultrasound wave emitted viatransducer. In clinical

application, please select the suitable acoustic power according to real situation and

Acoustic Power principle “ALARA”.

Adjust by the『AcousticPower』item on the touch screen

When acoustic power increases, the whole brightness of the imaging will increase evenly.

44
 Pseudo Color

Tint function enables imaging by color difference instead of gray scale, which distinguishes

the difference of gray scale more intuitively.

Adjust by the『PseudoColor』item on the touch screen

The numerical value indicates the pseudo color number, and the pseudo color number "0"

represents the default gray scale display.

 Noise Reduction

Noise suppression is mainly used to remove blur caused by factors such as composite

technology and SRI on B-mode images, so that B-mode display is clearer.

Adjust by the『NoiseReduction』item on the touch screen. A larger value indicates stronger

noise suppression, and a "0" indicates that the function is off.

Proper noise reduction levels will make the image clear.

 Edge enhancement

Edge enhancement refers to enhancing the image outline to strengthen the effects of

image edges.

Adjust with the 『 EdgeEnhance 』 item on the touch screen. A larger value indicates a

stronger edge enhancement, and a "0" indicates that the function is off.

Excessive edge enhancement levels can cause image particles to become larger.

 U/D, L/R

By changing the way the image is displayed obtain the best view point.

It enables the image reversing vertically up/down and horizontally left/right.

ByU/D,L/R on touch screen reverse the image or cancel image reversing.

By mark on screen identify the imaging direction. By default, the mark is in the

upper left corner.

 Zoom

Amplify the scan image as a whole.

45
The whole image can be magnified or shrunk by the【 】 rocking switch on the control

panel.

Real-time images frozen images and movie playback images can be magnified and can be

measured annotated or tagged on the enlarged image.

 Puncture guidance

Puncture guidance function is also called biopsy sampling function. The puncture line and

guide line of the puncture guide must be calibrated before using the puncture guidance

function.

Click the『Biopsy』on touch screen, activate this function.

Adjust『LineNum』on touch screen,change puncture line number

Adjust『Fine TuneD』on touch screen,Fine tuning of guide line distance

Adjust『Fine TuneA』on touch screen,Fine tuning of guide line angle

Adjust『Angle』on touch screen,significantly change the angle of the lead line, which is

used primarily for calibration

Adjust『Exit』, exit the puncture boot function, return B mode.

 B/SRI

In the B mode, click the touch screen『B|SRI』to display the real-time double image and

display the B mode image and the SRI image at the same time.

 Trapezoidal

In B mode, press the [Angle] knob to enter trapezoidal imaging for a larger scan area.

Please note: this adjustment is only available for linear probes.

Adjust by Trapezoidal on longitudinal image parameter menu.

 Spatial Composite

Spatial Composite imaging improves image resolution by acquiring ultrasound images from

multiple different angles to form a single frame image. Spatial composite also contributes

to the visual display of tissue boundaries/edges.

46
When B mode is real-time scanning, click the touch screen 『SpatialComp』 to adjust the

spatial composite level. A larger value indicates that the angle used for the composite is

larger or the angle is larger. “0” means to turn off the function. The higher level of spatial

synthesis is only available for shallow inspection of line array probes.

Too high a level of spatial composite can blur the image, especially for fast moving

tissues/structures, in which case it is recommended to reduce or turn off spatial composite.

Spatial composite shows a frame image after combining different angles of ultrasound

images, so the composite image size is smaller than the unprocessed image.

 Tissue Harmonic Imaging (THI)

THI obtains images by transmitting two ultrasounds to improve image resolution, especially

midfield resolution.

B mode real-time scanning (convex array or line array probe), repeatedly click on the touch

screen 『THI』, you can switch between B mode and reverse phase harmonic (Phase THI).

In the B mode real-time scanning (phased array probe), click the touch screen 『THI』, you

can switch between B mode and filter type harmonic (Filter THI).

THI will increase the resolution of the midfield image, but will make the near and far field

images not good enough.

 Harmonic Fusion (FHI)

FHI will make the midfield image more clear and delicate, while maintaining the image

quality of near and far fields. Harmonic Fusion (FHI) mode is only available for convex

array probes.

When B mode is real-time scanning,click the touch screen 『FHI』to activate the harmonic

fusion mode. Click again to return to B mode.

6.5 B/M Mode


The B/M mode is used to check the tissue motion and display the amplitude change caused by

the change of the direction of a sound beam selected by the user.

6.5.1 B/M Mode Operation

6.5.2 B/M Mode Parameter


In the B/M mode scan, the on-screen imaging parameter area displays the real-time parameter

values as shown below.

Display P Gn Frq SS

Parameter Acoustic Power Gain Frequency SpeedV

6.5.3 B/M Mode Imaging Optimization


 M sampling line angle

The M sampling line angle refers to the angle between the M line and the image depth

direction.

When the B/M mode is scanned in real time, the trackball is moved to adjust the M

sampling line position, and rotate『Angle』to change the sampling line angle

The M sampling line angle is displayed in the B/M mode imaging parameter area in units of

"degrees (°)".

 B/M mode gain

Use B mode gain to adjust the brightness of the B/M mode image.

In the B/M mode, turn the [B] key to adjust the brightness of the B/M mode image.

Increasing the gain will bright the image and you can see more received signals. However,

noise may also increase. .

 Sweep speed

48
This parameter is used to set the scanning speed of B/M mode imaging. The real-time

speed value is displayed in the image parameter area on the right side of the screen.

Adjust the scanning speed by using the 『SweepV』item on the touch screen.

Each value represents a different scanning speed, and a high scanning speed is better for

fast moving tissue. Changes in speed make it easier to identify diseases in the heart cycle.

 Edge enhancement

Edge enhancement refers to enhancing the image outline to strengthen the effects of

image edges.

Adjust with the 『 EdgeEnhance 』 item on the touch screen. A larger value indicates a

stronger edge enhancement, and a "0" indicates that the function is off.

Excessive edge enhancement levels can cause image particles to become larger.

 SV Length

The sample volume length is adjusted to better locate the area of interest.

Adjust by the『SV Length』item on the touch screen.

The size of the sampling gate is in centimeters (cm).

 Display Format

Switch the display mode.

In B/M mode, press 『R/D』on the touch screen to switch the display format to left/right

display. Press 『R/D』on the touch screen again to return to the default up/down display

format. Push the rocker switch【 】up to display it in full screen.

 Map

Adjust and optimize the image grayscale contrast.

Adjust by the『Map』item on the touch screen.

This feature can be used in real time, frozen state.

6.6 C Mode

49
The C (Color Blood Flow) mode facilitates the observation of color blood flow information

and allows to determine the direction and velocity of blood flow by color. In general, the

color above the baseline of the color bar indicates the blood flow to the probe, and the color

below indicates the blood flow back to the probe; the color is closer to color on the top of

the color bar, the faster the blood flow, the closer the color is to the baseline of the color bar,

the slower the blood flow.

6.6.1 C Mode Operation


1. Optimize the B mode image;

2. Press the [C] key to enter the C mode.

3. Use the trackball and [Set] key to change the position and size of the sampling frame

(ROI).

4. Adjust image parameters during the scanning process to obtain an optimized image;

5. Perform other operations (such as measurements and calculations) if necessary;

6. Press the [B] or [C] key to exit the C mode.

6.6.2 C Mode Parameter


In the C mode scan, the on-screen imaging parameter area displays the real-time parameter

values as shown below.

Display P Gn Frq PRF WF


Acoustic Pulse Repetition
Parameter Gain Frequency Wall Filter
Power Frequency

6.6.3 C Mode Imaging Optimization


 Frequency

In C mode, The system supports multiple frequencies

Click the touch screen『Frequency』, adjust the frequency value.

The lower the frequency, the more energy, the better the penetration and sensitivity. High

frequency and high resolution of blood flow.

 C.Gain

C mode gain is enhanced or reduced overall Doppler signal.

50
Rotate【C】button,Adjust C mode gain.

Too much gain will cause color noise, and insufficient gain will reduce color flow

information.

 ROI

The function is to adjust the width and position of the color mode ROI.

When the ROI box is a dashed line, slide the trackball to change the size. When the ROI

box is solid, sliding the trackball to change position. Press [set] to switch between solid and

dashed lines.

The larger the ROI frame, the lower the frame rate and the lower the resolution and color

sensitivity.

 PRF

The pulse repetition rate (PRF) is the reciprocal of the pulse repetition period (the interval

between the two pulses). Adjust through the『Scale』item on the touch screen.

High-speed blood flow detection requires a large PRF, otherwise it will cause color

confusion. Low-speed blood flow detection requires small PRF to keep low-frequency

signals unfiltered.

The range of PRF regulation is limited by the depth of scanning. For example, a deep color

ROI does not support high PRF.

 Smooth

Smoothing is a post-processing function used to reduce noise for continuous display of

Doppler spectrum images.

Adjust this function through 『Smooth』item on the touch screen. The greater the value, the

stronger the smoothness."0" indicates that the function is off.

Smoothing reduces color noise and makes color blood flow more continuous.

 Persistent

Frame correlation, also known as afterglow, is a time filter that averages images frame by

frame.

51
Adjust by 『Persistent』 item on the touch screen. The larger the value is, the stronger the

frame correlation is. "0" means that the function is turned off.

Frame correlation reduces color noise and makes blood flow display continuous, but too

high a level can lead to false color.

 Map

The system provides a variety of color images for better display in different clinical

applications.

Adjust by the『Map』 item on the touch screen. Choose the color of interest.

 Line Density

Linear density determines the quality and information of the image.

Adjust through the 『Density』 on the touch screen.

The higher the linear density, the higher the resolution;

The higher the line density, the lower the frame frequency.

 B-Reject

B reject refers to an amplitude threshold.

Adjust through the 『B-Reject』on the touch screen.

The greater the value, the stronger the tissue inhibition. "0" means maximum tissue

detection.

When the corresponding B value of the detected color pixel region is greater than the

threshold value, the pixel region is shown to be tissue rather than blood flow. B

suppression can prevent the bright tissue boundary (e.g. vascular wall) from being

detected as blood flow. But too low a B inhibition level may remove real blood flow

information, especially in relatively dark imaging areas.

 V- Accept

Velocity passing means a velocity threshold.

Adjusted by the『V-Accept』item on the touch screen

52
The higher the speed level, the lower the threshold, which means that if the speed of a

pixel is greater than the threshold, the pixel is detected as blood flow. Using low-level

speed is detected as blood flow by preventing rapid movement of tissue, but too low a level

will remove true low-speed blood flow.

 Ensemble Size

The number of sampling packets controls the number of single color blood flow scanning

harness. These scanning harness were processed to calculate blood flow velocity and

other parameters.

Adjusted by the『EnsembleSize』item on the touch screen

Larger sampling packets will show better blood flow sensitivity, but lower frame rates.

Note: in cardiac examinations, small sampling packets such as 6 or 8 can be used to

maintain a high frame rate. For other site checks, a larger number of sampling packets can

be used as long as the frame rate is appropriate (at least 10 frames).

 Flow Priority

Blood flow priority is set for blood flow thresholds for tissue / blood flow detection.

Adjust by the『FlowPriority』on the touch screen.

Large blood flow priority makes it easier to detect blood flow in small blood vessels, but

also increases blood flow noise in tissue movement.

 Wall Filter

Filter low speed signals from tissue motion.

Adjust through the 『Wallfilter』 item on the touch screen.

Excessive wall filtering removes real low-speed blood flow information.

 Frame Rate

Adjust through the『FrameRate』 item on the touch screen.

A high frame rate is usually required in C mode.

 Disply Parameter

53
Switching C mode display parameters

Select the display speed or variance through the 『 DlyParameter 』 item on the touch

screen.

The current version of the software has two parameters, velocity and variance. Speed is

the display parameter used by the system default check. Variance can show the level of

blood flow disturbance, which is helpful to detect eddy current and even turbulence.

 Double real time

Real-time dual-amplitude display allows both modes to be activated at the same time.

1. Click『SideComp』once,Real-time dual-amplitude display C/B;

2. Click『SideComp』twice,Real-time dual-amplitude display C/P(Power);

3. Click『SideComp』triple,Real-time dual-amplitude display C/DP(Directional Power)


;

4. Click『SideComp』again, go back C mode.

 Reverse

Reverse the direction of the color Doppler image.

Adjust the size through the『ColorInv』 item on the touch screen.

 Angle deflection

Note: This adjustment is only applicable to linear array probes.

Rotate【Angle】to adjust it.

This function is used to adjust the scanning angle of the linear array probe, thus changing

the angle between the emitting beam and the flow direction.

6.7 PD/DPDI Mode


PD (Power Doppler) mode is used to represent the information of the density and velocity of

erythrocytes in the blood flow for a certain period of time, and the color of different brightness

is used to mark it, but it does not reflect the information of the direction of the blood flow.

DPDI (directional Power Doppler) has the advantages of all PD imaging and has the direction

information that is not available in PD imaging. The adjustment of image parameters in

PD/DPDI mode is basically consistent with that in C mode, which can be adjusted with

54
reference to C mode .

2. Click『SideComp』twice,Real-time dual-amplitude display DP/C;

3. Click『SideComp』triple,Real-time dual-amplitude display DP/P;

4. Click『SideComp』again, go back DPDI mode.

6.8 PW Mode
PW (Pulse Doppler) mode, which is used to study the movement information of blood flowing

along a scanning line in a certain region. The transverse axis of PW spectrum is used to

55
represent the time, and the longitudinal axis represents the Doppler shift. When the angle

between the sound beam and the blood flow is known, the velocity and flow rate of the blood

15 Acoustic Power Output Principle

This chapter aims at the whole system (including the main engine, probe, accessories and

peripheral equipment), aiming to provide operators with sound output related information and how

to use the ALARA principle to control radiation time and other important safety information.

Please read the chapter carefully before using.

15.1 Biological Effects


Ultrasound is generally believed to be safe for diagnosis, and so far no human damage has

been reported.

In spite of this, we can not arbitrarily believe that all ultrasonic waves are absolutely safe.

Studies have confirmed that high intensity ultrasound is harmful to human tissue.

In recent years, with the long-term development of ultrasound diagnostic technology, more and

more people are concerned about the application of ultrasound and the potential risk of biological

effects caused by ultrasound diagnostic technology.

15.2 Statement of Cautious Use


Although it has not been clearly established that diagnostic ultrasound devices can cause

biological effects in the human body, it is still possible to prove the existence of biological effects in

future applications. We must use ultrasound carefully, play its clinical role, and avoid long-term use

of high-intensity ultrasound while obtaining the necessary clinical information.

15.3 ALARA Principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable)


When using ultrasound, the ALARA principle should be followed, and the lowest level of energy

that does not lead to biological effects should be used as far as possible on the premise of obtaining

diagnostic information. The magnitude of ultrasonic energy depends on the intensity and time of

exposure. Different patients and clinical cases need different ultrasonic intensity.

Not all tests can be done by exporting very low energy ultrasonic waves. Ultrasound with very

low energy can only produce low quality images and weak Doppler signals, thus affecting the

reliability of diagnosis. However, the use of more than the actual need for sound power does not

help to improve the quality of diagnostic information, but will increase the risk of biological effects.
146
Users must be responsible for the patient's safety by purposefully using ultrasound, that is,

selecting the output power of the ultrasound according to the ALARA principle.

For further information on ALARA principles and the potential biological effects of ultrasound,

refer to the Safety of Medical Ultrasound document published by the American Academy of

Ultrasound Medicine (AIUM).

15.4 MI/TI Description

15.4.1 Basic Information of MI and TI

The relationship between ultrasound output parameters (such as frequency, sound pressure

and sound intensity) and biological effects has not yet been clarified, but it is generally recognized

that there are two possible causes of biological effects. One is the thermal effect, which refers to the

absorption of ultrasound by tissues; the other is the mechanical effect including cavitation effect.

Thermal index (TI) represents the index of temperature rise caused by thermal effect, and

mechanical index (MI) represents the index of mechanical effect. TI and MI reflect instantaneous

output and do not consider the cumulative effect of inspection time.

a) MI (mechanical index):

The mechanical effect is the result of the formation, enlargement, vibration and collapse of

microbubbles in tissue under the action of sound waves, which is called cavitation effect. MI

indicates the possibility of cavitation effect of sound pressure. The MI value is obtained by dividing

the peak negative pressure by the square root of the frequency, so the higher the frequency or the

lower the peak negative pressure, the smaller the MI value, and the less likely the cavitation effect is.

When the frequency is 1MHz and the negative pressure is 1Mpa, the MI value is 1. MI can be

regarded as a threshold of cavitation effect. When gas and soft tissue exist at the same time, the MI

value should be set to a lower value.

b) TI (thermal index):

TI is determined by the ratio of total acoustic power to the sound power required to raise the

tissue temperature by 1 degrees centigrade. In addition, the tissue structure of different temperature

rise is different, so TI is divided into three categories: TIS (soft tissue thermal index), TIB (bone

147
thermal index), TIC (skull thermal index).

WFUMB (World Union for Ultrasound Medicine and Biology) states that radiation with a

5-minute temperature rise of 4 degrees Celsius may cause potential damage to embryos and fetal

tissues.

15.4.2 MI/TI Display Description


Real time display at the bottom left of the screen. Operators should monitor these exponential

values during the inspection process and ensure that radiation time and sound output values are

kept as low as possible while obtaining effective diagnostic information.

Notice: if MI or TI shows more than 1.0, users should follow the ALARA principle carefully.

The accuracy of MI and TI is 0.1

15.5 Acoustic Output Control


The output of sound is ultimately dependent on the operator of the equipment. Qualified

operators should minimize the output of sound while obtaining effective diagnostic images. Two

types of operation control affect the change of sound output: direct control and indirect control.

a) direct control:

Direct control of sound output is based on the "sound power" on the touchscreen to regulate

the size of the sound output. Typical values of acoustic output in specific application areas are

shown in Appendix C. In any mode, the maximum acoustic output value should not exceed the

acoustic output limit value (MI limit value is 1.9, Ispta.3 limit value is 720Mw/cm2).

b) Indirect control:

Indirect control of acoustic output is mainly caused by control of image correlation parameters.

These controls include operation mode, probe and its frequency, focus, image depth and pulse

repetition rate.

16 EMC Declaration

EMC refers to a performance that a product, a device or a system can work properly and doesn’t

cause unsustainable electromagnetic disturbance to any objects in its environment.

Resistance to electromagnetic interference makes products, equipment or systems can work in the

presence of electromagnetic interference (EMI).

EMI and EMS have been thoroughly considered at the beginning of designing the Full Digital Colour

Doppler Ultrasonic Diagnostic System.

The Full Digital Colour Doppler Ultrasonic Diagnostic System is designed and produced according

to present EMC standard and related requirements. Using the system in electromagnetic field may

cause performance changes or degradations like unstable output. If it happens frequently, it’s suggested

to inspect the system’s operating environment to confirm possible disturbance origins. Those

disturbances may originate from other electrical devices in the same room or the room nearby, or from

portable and mobile RF communication equipment like cellphones, interphones etc, or from radio

equipment, TV or microwave transmission equipment. If the Full Digital Colour Doppler Ultrasonic

Diagnostic System is interfered by EMI, it shall be moved to other places or associated measures shall

be taken to prevent it from EMI.

The product meets the requirement of EMC standard EN60601-1-2:2007.
