Q
  1. Know about PRP and PRF?
A

They are inversely related. Shallow imaging- Shorter listening time, shorter PRP, Higher PRF Deep Imaging- Longer listening time, longer PRP, lower PRF

18
Q
  1. Questions of shade of gray and bits know how to convert those
A

2 ^number of bits (JL pg 246)

19
Q
19. Uses old data
Postprocessing
Larger pixel size
Same # of pixels as in the original ROI 
Unchanged spatial resolution 
Unchanged temporal resoltuion
A

Read (zoom)

20
Q
19. Acquires new data
Preprocessing 
Identical pixel size 
More pixels than in the original ROI 
Improved spatial resolution 
May improve temporal resolution
A

Write (zoom)

21
Q
  1. Know the functions that are Preprocessing
A

Manipulation of image data before storage in the scan converter. Alters the image data forever and cannot be reversed or undone.

22
Q
  1. Function of Postprocessing
A

Manipulation of image data after storage in the scan converter. The changes can be reversed, Any alteration to a frozen image.

23
Q
Time gain compensation 
Log compression  
Write magnification 
Persistence
Spatial compounding 
Edge enhancement 
Fill-in interpolation
A

Preprocessing

24
Q
Any change after freeze frame
Black/white inversion 
Read magnification 
Contrast variation 
3-D rendering
A

Postprocessing

25
Q

Yes it is adjustable, All signals treated identically, Entire image gets brighter or darker

A

Amplification

26
Q

Yes it is adjustable, Signals treated differently based on reflector depth, Image will be uniformly bright from top to bottom

A

*Compensation

27
Q

Yes it is adjustable, Signals treated differently depending on strength, Changes gray scale mapping

A

*compression

28
Q

No it isn’t adjustable, Prepared electrical signals to be suitable for display, No effect on the image

A

*Demodulation

29
Q

Yes it is adjustable, Only weak signals affected; strong signals remain unchanged, Week echoes appear or are eliminated from image

A

*Reject
