Composition, Principle and Specifications
Chapter 2 Composition, Principle and Specifications 2.1 Composition and Operation Principle 2.1.1 System Composition The system consists of a main unit (including a monitor), probes and peripheral devices. The main unit includes a probe interface board, a T/R board, a digital processing board, a power board, a computer, a control panel (console), a monitor and an ATX power supply. See Fig. 2-1. This system can be connected with 2 probes at the same time. By using the circuitry on the probe interface to switch the probes, the user may select the required probe via the control panel.

Composition, Principle and Specifications
the ultrasound T/R front end. Here is the working process of the system: Based on control actions from the control panel, the computer control system generals control commands and parameter data automatically. The Digital Processing Board receives commands and control parameters from the computer control system, distributes them to each functional module. The real-time controller on the Digital Processing Board generates live scan control signals and controls transmission of the front-end T/R Board and Probe Interface Board. The beam-forming module on the Digital Processing Board receives amplified echo signals from the T/R Board and performs digital beam forming, then sends beam data to the subsequent digital signal processing module. As a key technique, digital signal processing plays an important role in ultrasound systems. This technology ensures image information being transmitted and converted with high fidelity; and it will have further processing to acquire better images, which is conducive to correct diagnosis by doctors. Data information such as image data processed by digital signals is sent to the computer control system for further processing and image display. Every time when ultrasound is transmitted, the excitation high-voltage from the Probe Interface Board generates and sends a set of excitation pulses to the current working probe. One element group in the transducer is excited and ultrasound is transmitted. Ultrasound is propagated in and reflected by the human tissue, and the ultrasound returned to the probe is received by the same element group and then sent to the preamplifier on the T/R Board for pre-amplification, depth gain compensation and programmable gain amplification. After this process, signals are sent to the digital processing board. The power module, including ATX power and the power supply board for ultrasound T/R front end, provides all kinds of power required by the system. Based on operator button actions, relevant information is sent from the computer control panel to the computer control system. The platform generates control commands and parameter data automatically, and sends them to the digital processing board. The computer control system is the managerial center of the whole system, which receives operation command from the operation panel, and control the whole system based on the current state of the system. The other functions that the computer control system fulfills also include measurement and calculation, screen display and video processing, management of patient data and images, as well as control of storage, printing and communication.

Fig. 6-2 Parameters for B Mode Imaging 【Note】: FPS stands for frame per second, D for dynamic range, G for grayscale curve, GN for gain, I for image softening, P for persistence, PWR for power, FRQ for frequency, and D for depth. 6.4.2 Operation of B Mode Controls B Gain
Changing gain may adjust overall brightness of B mode images.
The change of gain determines the amplification value of the received echoes, and all the received echoes are amplified at the same gain value despite the depth. In live state, turn B Mode gain knob to adjust the gain of the B
mode image. Turn it clockwise to increase the gain, and the image gets brighter; or turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the gain, and the image gets dimmer. 【Tip】: 1)
Set appropriate gain. For example, to display the liver, adjust the gain to produce an image with normal evenness and textures, with identification of diaphragm reflector belt closely adjacent to the liver back. The portal vein and the hepatic vein are displayed as echo-free tract structure in the cavity. The portal vein wall has echoes, while echoes of hepatic vein wall are weaker than those of the portal vein.
2) Wrong gain may result in incorrect diagnosis, or inability to diagnose. If the gain is too low, the solid tumor may seem to be cystic, with no echo inside, but the echoes at the back enhance. If the gain is too high, the liquid structure may be full of echoes,

similar to solid tumor; or normal amniotic fluid may be full of small light spot echoes, thus the displayed image is similar to turbid amniotic fluid, which may lead to wrong diagnosis. 3) When the overall gain is low, the overall sensitivity will be low, and the whole image display will be dark, however, which is good for BPD measurement. 4) If the image is unclear when the gain is changed, apply more coupling gel on the examined part or the probe. TGC
Due to attenuation of ultrasound in human body increases with depth, the ultrasound image shall be adjusted according to the depth from near to far, so as to maintain uniform images from near field to far field. When increasing the gain at a certain depth is required, change the TGC (Time Gain Control) sliders.
In live state, slide the sliders to the left to weaken the echo signals, or to the right to enhance the echo signals.
【Tip】: 1) Since the slider positions are different, they are not saved in the user application. 2) When adjusting TGC sliders, the TGC curve is displayed on the right of the ultrasound image area. If the TGC sliders are not moved within 3 seconds, the TGC curve disappears automatically. 【Suggestion】: Adjust the values of TGC sliders like this: weak in near field while strong in far field. Depth
In live state, toggle Depth switch to change the image depth. Toggle it down to increase depth, and the image display size gets smaller for viewing the whole depth range; toggle it up to decrease depth, and the image display size gets bigger. The scan line number and the frame rate are optimized automatically. 【Tip 1】: The maximum and minimum values of depth are probe dependant. The actual depth is displayed in cm, at the top left of the parameter area. 【Tip 2】: In frozen state, the displayed B mode image is repositioned on the monitor, without any change in depth range.

If WF in the main menu is selected, you may also turn the knob SP2 to adjust wall filter. 【Tip】: This adjustment is relative to color sensitivity. To detect high-velocity flow or turbulent flow, increase the WF value to eliminate frequency shift artifact due to low velocity flow signals and low wall activity. To detect low-velocity flow, decrease the WF value to avoid flow signals with low frequency being cut off.
PRF (Pulse

it. This adjustment will increase/ decrease the detection range of flow velocity. 【Tip】: Higher PRF will lead to higher detectable flow velocity, lower color filling and higher frame rate; on the contrary, lower PRF will result in lower detectable flow velocity, higher color filling and lower frame rate. It is better to adjust this value without leading to color inversion. When detecting low-velocity flow, decrease the PRF value, so as to increase sensitivity of color flow signal. Low PRF easily results in color alias and mosaic images.

Instruction of 3D Imaging (Option)
D.1 Enter 3D Imaging When an active 2D image is frozen, press 4D to enter 3D imaging. In 3D mode, the object is scanned from 3 planes, as shown in Fig. D-1. Four sections are displayed onscreen to shown different slice planes of images. The top left is the X-view, which shows the normal scanning image; the bottom left is the Z-view, the top right is the Y-view, and the bottom right is the 3D rendering view.
Fig.D-1 Use the trackball to move the cursor to the ROI (region of interest) box, press Update to select the ROI, move the trackball to adjust the ROI position, and press Set to confirm the ROI position. Meanwhile, use the trackball to change the size of the ROI box. press Set again to restore the trackball function to adjusting the ROI position. Press Update to confirm the ROI finally.

【Note】: If any item in the submenu is displayed in gray, it means such item is not adjustable. Here is the description of parameter functions and adjustment: CROP
During information acquisition, the CROP mode allows the display of information in the crop ROI only, and you may change the size and position of ROI, as well as reflection change in the volume area.
Use the trackball to move the cursor over CROP, press Set to select it, turn Menu knob or press ←／→ to set it ON or OFF, so as to turn on or off the CROP function.
ROI MODE
Move the cursor over ROI MODE, press Set to select it, turn Menu knob or press ←／→ to set it ON or OFF, so as to turn on or off ROI MODE.
HIDE ROI
Move the cursor over HIDE ROI, press Set to select it, turn Menu knob or press ←／→ to set it ON or OFF. Setting it ON is to hide ROI.
RENDER
In color copy mode, the color information of color or power Doppler
MODE
signals can be used for 4D display. Move the cursor over RENDER MODE, press Set to select it, turn Menu knob or press ←／→ to select Vol, Max IP or X-ray. Vol – The image closer to the ROI volume box is brighter, while the image farther from the ROI is dimmer. Max IP – The maximum color value of the CROP ROI is displayed. X-ray – All the color values of the CROP ROI are calculated and averaged (with the same effect as the X-ray image).
AUTO
Move the cursor over AUTO ROTATE, press Set to select it, turn Menu
ROTATE
knob or press ←／→ to select the angle for 3D image auto rotation, with 45°, 90°, 180°, 270° and 360° available. Then the 3D image will be

automatically rotated according to the selected angle. TRACE CUT
With this function, you may trace manually to remove the image region not desired to display, so as to make the interested object clearer for display.
Move the cursor over TRACE CUT, press Set to select it, turn
Menu knob or press ←／→ to set it OFF, IN or OUT.
OFF: select it to close this function.
IN: select it, and move the cursor to the 3D image. Press Set to fix the first point. Move the trackball to trace along the region to be cut, which is marked in red automatically. Press Set again to close the trace profile, and have the region in the profile cut.
OUT: select it, and when the same method as mentioned above is used, the region outside of the profile is cut.
UNDO OUT
Move the cursor over UNDO OUT, press Set to undo the last crop operation. 【Note】: Undo the crop operation once only, i.e. to cancel the last crop.
CLIP PLANE
Move the cursor over CLIP PLANE, press Set to select it, turn Menu knob or press ←／→ to set it ON or OFF, so as to turn on or off the plane.
OPACITY
Move the cursor over OPACITY OFFSET, press Set to select it, turn
OFFSET
Menu knob or press ←／→ to set different offset values.
OPACITY
Move the cursor over OPACITY SLOPE, press Set to select it, turn
SLOPE
Menu knob or press ←／→ to set different slope values.
SCAN
METHOD
Based on the acquisition method of volume information (either through linear or tilt motion), use this function to change the scan
D-5
Instruction of 3D Imaging
method (linear or sector), so as to calculate the volume information.
Move the cursor over SCAN METHOD, press Set to select it, turn
Menu knob or press ←／→ to select Lin (linear) or Sec (sector). Z SCALE
The moving speed of the probe might be somewhat different, which can be corrected by Z scale. The moving speed of the probe is in inverse proportion of Z scale. The increase of Z scale compensates slow-speed scanning, while the decrease of Z scale compensates fast-speed scanning.
Move the cursor over Z SCALE, press Set to select it, turn Menu knob or press ←／→ to increase or decrease Z scale.
Z ANGLE
When SCAN METHOD is set Sec, move the cursor over Z ANGLE, press
Set to select it, turn Menu knob or press ←／→ to change Z ANGLE. 【Note】: It needs some time to buffer for the setup of some parameters to take effect. The screen will display Please wait…, Just be patient to wait for the change.
