Conventional Ultrasound Visual Enhancements
The EPOCH ® 1000 series features a new and exciting set of visual
enhancement capabilities to improve the quality and ease of
detection in advanced applications.
• SureView ® – This feature emulates the functionality of analog
CRT displays, allowing you to visualize peak indications from
reflectors by adding a point of light along the A‑scan trace
where every peak occurs.
• Composite A-scan – This feature uses every A‑scan acquired
in between screen update rates (multiple A‑scans when
PRF > 60 Hz) to draw a composite A‑scan based on the
maximum envelope of all the acquired A‑scans. This feature
increases confidence of visual detection when scanning
quickly.
• Max Amplitude – This feature displays only the acquired
A‑scan with the highest gated amplitude reading between
screen updates.
• Persistence Mode – This feature retains previously acquired
A‑scans on the instrument display for a user‑selectable
duration. This feature provides visual “memory” of an
inspection for enhanced visual detection over a short period
of time.
• Baseline Break – This feature displays “zero‑cross” points as
lines connecting individual A‑scan lobes to the baseline in full
‑wave rectified mode.
• Min Thickness – This feature displays only the A‑scan
representing the minimum thickness reading between screen
updates.
• Averaged A-scan – This feature enables you to view the
average of the acquired A‑scans. Averaging is applied in
multipliers of 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x, and 64x.
