EKV Mode
EKV Mode (ECG-based Kilohertz Visualization) is an image reconstruction process that produces a one-
heart-cycle clip synthesized from image data acquired at a high frame rate. It is available for B-Mode and
the following PA-Mode submodes:
PA-Mode (Single)
l
PA-Mode (Oxy-Hemo)
l
PA-Mode (Multi-wavelength)
l
By acquiring data over multiple heart cycles and extracting data at specific time points, EKV Mode produces
a clip that is representative of a typical heart cycle.
To analyze an EKV Mode image, you use the same analysis tools that you would u se to analyze an image
in B-Mode or PA-Mode.
EKV Mode Image Display
When using EKV Mode, the image display shows the following in addition to the standard B-Mode interface.
1. Physiological data trace: When working in EKV Mode, the physiological data trace shows the EKV
average over one-heart-cycle per clip.
