Chapter 5 Measurements and Calculations
M Distance
This is a basic measurement that is available in M Mode only. You can specify two points in an M image
and measure the distance, elapsed time and velocity between them.
1. Press the M Distance button on the touch screen. “M Distance” is displayed in the user information
area.
2. Specify two points and then measure the shortest distance between them. The way that it is
measured is the same as in ‘Distance.’
3. Once measurement is done, the result is displayed on the screen.
D Velocity
This is a basic measurement that is available in Spectral Doppler Mode only. You can specify two points
in a Spectral Doppler image and measure the distance between them, and the velocity at each point
to calculate the velocity change, time change and acceleration.
NOTE: In a Spectral Doppler image, the X- and Y-axes represent time and velocity, respectively.
1. Press the D Velocity button on the touch screen. “D Velocity” is displayed in the user information
area.
2. Specify two points and then measure the shortest distance between them. The way that it is
measured is the same as in ‘Distance.’
3. Once measurement is done, the result is displayed on the screen. The displayed measurement
results vary depending on the settings in Utility > Measure Setup > General > Caliper.
