Trackball

mouse. It moves the onscreen cursor or a selected feature in the same way a mouse would.
Left Button

the left button on a mouse. When the ultrasound cursor is selected, clicking this button
deselects the cursor.
Right Button
– The button just to the right of the trackball performs the same functions as
the right button on a mouse. Clicking this button during live scanning selects the
ultrasound cursor.
