Questions And Answers
bodily tissues to the transducer and prepares data received for
display. The receiver's operations must occur in a specific order
The receivers operations in order: -
correct answer ✅amplification, compensation, compression,
demodulation, and reject (art class can drain Ryan)
Amplification (receiver gain) -
correct answer ✅increases the amplitude of electrical signals to
brighten to the overall image.
Other words for compensation: -
correct answer ✅TGC, time gain compensation, depth gain, swept
gain, depth gain compensation
Compensation: -
correct answer ✅a system function that allows for the production
of an image that is uniformly bright from top to bottom; without
compensation, the image gets progressively darker at increasing
depths due to attenuation of sound.
