Adaptive Image Fusion
ADAPT. IM FUSION
Adaptive image fusion provides choices of optimization methods for improving im-
age quality through boundary enhancement, image smoothing and system opti-
mization.
• go to the B mode menu (
Section 5.3.1
), highlight
ADAPT. IM FUSION
.
• use the
LEFT/RIGHT
keys to change the Adaptive image fusion setting.
Remarks:
Adaptive Image Fusion is displayed at the 2D Image Info Area on the screen (The
I
in
I/P
).

µ
Scan Function
uScan
The
µ
Scan function is an option. If it is not installed, the
uScan
item will
not appear in the B mode context menu.
The
µ
Scan function allows the transducer to see in more than one direction, elimi-
nates artifacts from the ultrasound image.
• go to the B mode menu (
Section 5.3.1
), highlight
uScan
.
• use the
LEFT/RIGHT
keys to turn On or Off the
µ
Scan Function.
5.3.18
Acoustic Output Power
POWER %
The acoustic output power of the transducer should be set to the minimum value
which still provides the user with well evaluable information. Always keep the power
level and the exposure time as low as reasonably achievable.
• go to the B mode menu (
Section 5.3.1
), highlight
POWER %
.
• use the
LEFT/RIGHT
keys to change the value of the acoustic output power.
Remarks:
• The acoustic output power is displayed at the 2D Image Info Area on the screen
(
PWR
).
• You can decrease the acoustic power indices (MI, TI) by reducing the output
power of the transducer.
5.3.19
Trapezoidal Imaging
TRAPEZOID
The Trapezoidal Imaging is only available with linear array probes. The
TRAPEZOID
item is hidden for other types of probes.
