Needle Vision™ Plus (Option)
Needle Vision™ Plus is a needle enhancement feature that can enhance viewing of the needle
to assist you in guiding the needle to the target anatomy. For more information, please refer to
"Needle Vision™ Plus" in User Manual.
To perform Needle Vision™
Plus,
1
1
Select
NeedleVision
on the touch screen.
2
2
Adjust the image parameters to obtain an optimized image.

on the touch screen.
Contrast Enhanced Imaging (Option)
The contrast enhanced ultrasound imaging is used in conjunction with ultrasound contrast
agents to enhance the imaging of blood flow and microcirculation. Blood containing the
contrast agent stands out brightly against a dark background of normal tissue. For more
information, please refer to "Contrast Enhanced Imaging" in User Manual.
To perform the contrast imaging,
1
1
Select
Contrast
on the touch screen.
The contrast image and 2D image are displayed side-by-side.

Inject the contrast agent, and select
Timer
on the touch screen to start the timing.
When the timer begins to work, the time will be displayed on the screen.

Line Density
Line density optimizes 2D mode frame rate or spatial resolution for the best possible image.
A lower line density is useful in fetal heart beat, adult cardiac applications and in clinical
Radiology applications requiring significantly higher frame rates. A higher line density is useful
in obtaining very high resolution (e.g. thyroid, testicles). To adjust the line density, select
<
or

of
LineDensity
on the touch screen.
