Needle size and angle Use a 17-gauge to 25-gauge needle (recommended). Enhancement results can depend on the type and brand of needle used. For more information, consult the medical literature on needle visibility in ultrasound-guided procedures. You can angle the needle up to 50° from the transducer surface as shown in Figure 4-3.
Back returns to the previous screen. If Steep Needle Profiling technology is on, SNP is highlighted and SNP appears in the mode data area. Pressing SNP again redisplays the SNP controls. Note If Steep Needle Profiling technology is on, the MB control is unavailable. Additional recommendations Avoid setting the gain too high when using Steep Needle Profiling technology, as unnecessarily high gain can cause artifacts in the image.
Small tilts or rotations of the transducer can affect the relationship between any external reference points and the anatomy that appears on the ultrasound image.

Chapter 5: Measurements and Calculations You can measure for quick reference, or you can measure within a calculation. You can perform general calculations as well as calculations specific to an exam type. Measurements are performed on frozen images. For references used, refer to Chapter 6, “Measurement References.
Within a calculation, calipers appear when you select from the calculations menu. Refer to “To select from the calculations menu” on page 73. Note For an accurate measurement, accurate placement of calipers is essential. To switch the active calipers Do one of the following: To switch the active caliper within a set, press the SELECT key.
Page 75
You can perform a combination of distance, area, circumference, and manual trace measurements at one time. The total number possible depends on their order and type. To measure distance (2D) You can perform up to eight distance measurements on a 2D image. 1 On a frozen 2D image, press the CALIPER key.
M Mode measurements The basic measurements that you can perform in M Mode imaging are as follows: Distance in cm/Time in seconds Heart Rate (HR) in beats per minute (bpm) The time scale above the trace has small marks at 200 ms intervals and large marks at one-second intervals. To measure distance (M Mode) You can perform up to four distance measurements on an image.
Page 77
Resistive Index (RI) Acceleration You can also trace manually or automatically. For Doppler measurements, the Doppler scale must be set to cm/ s. See “Presets setup” on page 33. To measure Velocity (cm/s) and Pressure Gradient (Doppler) 1 On a frozen Doppler spectral trace, press the CALIPER key. A single caliper appears. 2 Using the touchpad, position the caliper to a peak velocity waveform.
Page 78
3 Using the touchpad, position the caliper at the beginning of the desired waveform, and press the SELECT key.
