To calculate volume flow
1 If measuring the diameter instead of using the
gate size, perform the 2D measurement:
a On a frozen full‐screen 2D image or duplex
image, press the
b From the calculations menu, select D
(distance) under Vol Flow.
Position the calipers. (See "Working with
c
calipers" on page 47.)
Save the calculation. See "To save a
d
calculation" on page 51.
2 Perform the Doppler measurement:
a On a frozen Doppler spectral trace, press
the key.

b From the calculations menu, select TAM or
TAP under Vol Flow.
A vertical caliper appears.
c Using the touchpad, position the vertical
caliper at the beginning of the waveform.
If calipers are not positioned correctly, the
calculation result is inaccurate.
d Press the
SELECT
vertical caliper.
e Using the touchpad, position the second
vertical caliper at the end of the waveform.
f Press the key to complete the trace and
SET
to display the results.
g Save the calculation. See "To save a

In addition to the general calculations, there are
calculations specific to the Cardiac, Gynecology
(Gyn), IMT, OB, Orbital, Small Parts, Transcranial
Doppler (TCD), and Vascular exam types.

Cardiac calculations

WARNING: To avoid incorrect calculations,
verify that the patient information,
date, and time settings are accurate.
To avoid misdiagnosis or harming
the patient outcome, start a new
patient information form before
starting a new patient exam and
performing calculations. Starting a
new patient information form clears
the previous patient's data. The
previous patient's data will be
combined with the current patient
if the form is not first cleared. See
"To create a new patient
information form"
