Rotate the
Gain
knob clockwise to increase the value.
Rotate the
Gain
knob anticlockwise to decrease the value.
8.1.2.2 Adjusting the TGC

echoes over time (depth). It is adjustable during the real time scan regardless of the imaging mode and
display format. TGC balances the image so that the density of echoes is the same throughout the image.
Steps:
● Move the TGC slide pot left to dimmer the B mode image of the corresponding depth.
● Move the TGC slide pot right to brighten the B mode image of the corresponding depth.
