Dynamic Range
Description
Choose which method is used to trace
the Doppler waveform in realtime. (Also
found in the CWD soft menu.)
Controls how echo intensities are
converted to shades of gray, thereby
creating a range of gray scale that can be
adjusted. (Also found in the CWD soft
menu.)
Benefits
Front panel access through the VFD to
change trace method.
Useful for optimizing tissue texture to
differentiate between echo levels that are
close together. Dynamic range should be
adjusted so that the highest amplitude
edges appear as white while lowest
levels (such as blood) are just visible.
