There are 2 of Tissue Harmonic Echo: Tissue: Tissue Harmonic Echo (T.H.E.)and Broadband
Harmonics Imaging (BbH).
Tissue Harmonic Echo: T.H.E.
In the Tissue Harmonic Echo (T.H.E.) mode, it receives ultrasound waves at a frequency
equal to twice that used in the B mode or M mode, and performs image processing using
the second harmonics reflected from the tissues. This image processing enables a clear
image that is free from artifacts such as side lobes.
Particularly, this mode offers improved image diagnosis of patients who do not readily
transmit ultrasound wave signals. Since the receiving frequency is high, the sensitivity
slightly decreases. Pay careful attention to the sensitivity when examining a patient.
T.H.E. cannot be used for the second harmonic obtained as a result of using an ultrasound
contrast medium or medication.
Broadband Harmonics Imaging: BbH
Provides B mode and M mode images in higher resolution by removing the extra
components of the second harmonics. It cannot be used for the second harmonic obtained
as a result of using an ultrasound contrast media or medication.
NOTE: T.H.E. is not available with some probes. Menus related to T.H.E. cannot be selected
when using a probe that does not support T.H.E.
The T.H.E/BbH mode receives the twice the frequency of the transmission frequency to display
the image.

The D mode displays the data on the blood flow in the heart and blood vessels using Doppler
effect. The D mode image is not an image of a part of the body, but is a graph of blood flow
information. For this reason, a D mode image is also called a Doppler pattern.
The B/D mode simultaneously displays a B mode image and a D mode image. It observes blood
flow information on a D mode image while checking the B mode image to see what part of the
body the detected blood flow information belongs to.
The following two kinds of ultrasound beams are used to display a D mode image.
• PW Doppler
Emits the ultrasound beam as discrete pulses to display a D mode image. You can obtain
blood flow information concerning any point on a B mode image.
• CW Doppler

ECG sync display (SYNC function) is a function that displays the ECG waveform image only
where the ECG sync mark is passing. You can obtain the image of any desired time phase while
observing the time phase of the ECG waveform.
Navigate the preset (Preset Set-Up Menu > Menu-Function) and assign the following:
• ECG Sync
• R-Delay Time
• B/Sync Mode
The instrument automatically determines if the heart rate is stable enough to perform the
measurement.
Navigate the preset (Preset Set-Up Menu > Menu-Function) to assign HR Stability Display,
HR Stability Disp (Avg.) and HR Stability Disp (Conti) to the function menu.
Or navigate the preset (Preset Set-Up Menu > Physio) to assign HR Stability Display, HR
Stability Disp(Avg.) and HR Stability Disp (Conti), then return to the image display.
If all of the heart rates compared are within the acceptable range, the most recent single
heartbeat is judged as stable. The HR display at the top right of the screen will be highlighted.
For example, if HR Stability Disp (Avg.) is set to 10%, and HR Stability Disp (Conti) is set to
20%, with the heart rate of 100 for the average of five previous heartbeats, 110 for the previous
single heartbeat, and 105 for the most recent single heartbeat, determination of stability is made
in the following manner.
HR 100
110 105
Based on the HR Stability Disp (Avg.) setting of 10%, the condition for the most recent single
heartbeat and the previous single heartbeat is considered stable with the heart rate between 90
and 110, calculated from the heart rate of 100 for the average of five previous heartbeats. Since
they are both within the acceptable range, they meet the HR Stability Disp (Avg.) condition.
Next, based on the HR Stability Disp (Conti) setting of 20%, the stability condition for the most
recent single heartbeat is to be between 88 and 132, calculated from the heart rate of 110 for the
previous single heartbeat. Since the heart rate of the most recent single heartbeat is within the
acceptable range, it meets the HR Stability Disp (Conti) condition.
Since all conditions are fulfilled, the most recent single heartbeat is determined to be a stable
heart rate, and the HR display at the top of the screen is highlighted.
5-1 Search
The search function temporarily records an image in the instrument's memory before it is
frozen, so it can be retrieved and observed after it is frozen. By using the search function, past
images can be retrieved if necessary when you miss the opportunity to freeze an image.
When the ECG waveform is displayed, a search mark is displayed on the ECG waveform. An
image can be searched by checking its time phase, then retrieved and played back. Search can
be performed, either by observing B mode images, or by observing M, D mode images in scroll.
When multiple images are displayed, such as in the 2B modes, each image can be recorded
separately for retrieval and display. However, neither search nor scroll can be used if any of the
images are displayed in real-time.
Please be aware of the following points when using the search function.
• The number of images that can be recorded in memory varies by image display
conditions such as the probe used, the display mode, and display depth. This means, the
recordable image count is not always the same.
• Only images recorded in the instrument's memory can be searched or scrolled.
If you freeze an image immediately after canceling the freeze state, search and scroll is
possible only for images recorded in memory during this interval, even if the memory is
not filled to capacity. When memory capacity is exceeded, images stored prior to the
freeze are erased in sequence starting from the oldest image. Neither search nor scroll is
possible with erased images.
• All images recorded in memory are erased when image display conditions such as mode
or display depth are changed, or when image freeze is canceled.
1) Search
Forward search flips through the images stored in memory one-by-one until the last
(latest) image is reached. Backward search flips through the images until the first (oldest)
image is reached.
Rotary Encoder
During freeze, the search number (e.g. 23/176) is displayed. The number on the left is the
frame number of the image being displayed, and the number on the right represents the
total number of image frames recorded in memory.
2) Scroll
The display range can be moved between the first and last image in memory.

The preset function can store set conditions and recall them as necessary. By using preset
settings, you can make adjustment and configuration of the instrument by simple procedures,
thus reducing the examination time.
The set values can be switched over according to the purpose of use, diagnostic region and
differences between individual operators, or conversely can be unified. Storing settings on the
instrument saves time that would be required for setting complex conditions, and can avoid
errors when making such settings.
