Performing an Exam
Imaging Modes
The patient name and ID are displayed in the patient bar, which is outside of the image area
and not acquired in an image. However, patient information is overlaid on to an image when it
is printed. To hide the patient name and ID on the printed image, touch Utilities, and then
touch Hide Patient Info on the System tab. All other information displayed in the patient bar
(time/date, institution name, and so on) remains in the overlay and is included on the printed
image.
Any loop or still frame acquired while the patient name is hidden will also be exported with the
patient name hidden.
Imaging Modes
Your ultrasound system offers a set of imaging modes to accommodate a variety of imaging
applications. Some modes display a live grayscale image. Others are Doppler modes to evaluate
the amplitude or the direction of the blood flow and the spectral information. Special modes
are also available for 3D imaging and Panoramic imaging.
NOTE
Some modes are available on your system only if the corresponding option has been purchased
and installed.
Selecting a Transducer
When the system is turned on, the system initializes the last active transducer. If that
transducer is not connected, the system initializes the transducer that is connected to the
leftmost connector, unless you have defined another transducer as the default transducer. If
you have set a default transducer and it is connected, then the system initializes that
transducer. For information on setting a default transducer, see
"Setting the Default Transducer
and Preset" on page
148.
