B-Mode
B-Mode is the default imaging mode for the Vevo F2 Imaging System. This mode displays echoes in a two-
dimensional view by assigning a brightness level based on echo signal amplitude.
B-Mode is the most common imaging mode because it is the most effective mode for locating anatomical
structures. Conventional ultrasound images are typically made in B-Mode.
B-Mode is also used as:
A background image over which other active mode data is applied.
l
A real-time orientation view for guiding the transducer to a desired location.
l
A visual guide for needle injections.
