2 Anatomical M-Mode
Anatomical M-mode is used for fetal cardiac applications. Anatomical M-mode can be
used with phased array probes when performing cardiac exams or convex probes when
performing abdominal exams. In the anatomical M-mode, the M-mode cursor can be
positioned perpendicular to the anatomical structure and be adjusted 360° even when
viewing motion patterns for irregular objects. It is used to study the ventricular function of
the heart.
Perform the following steps to acquire anatomical M-mode images.
