You are performing a sonographic exam with a wide bandwidth transducer. The advantage you obtained with the transducer compared to a narrow band transducer is:

_____________________ is defined as specific area or location where Doppler shift information is being obtained.

______________________________ is defined as the time from onset of systole to the time peak systole occurs.

You obtained this color Doppler image while performing hepatic sonography. There is no color signal detected within the portal vein. What can you do to improve sensitivity to slow flow?

Which of the following correctly describes a CW Doppler evaluation?

What method is used to steer the color beam with a linear array transducer?

If the peak pressure gradient in a vessel is 36mmHg, what is the velocity of the flow?

The best obtainable angle of insonation for vascular evaluation that is most commonly used to provide Doppler shift information is _________ degrees.

The term __________________ is described as the filling in of the spectral window on a Doppler tracing that is caused by turbulence.

During performance of an obstetric ultrasound exam you adjust the system parameters to improve the image. Which of the following parameters would increase acoustic exposure?
