The "TGC slide controls" vary the gain in certain depths of the 2D image to allow an exact
compensation for the attenuation of the echoes over time (depth).
TGC slide controls to selectively adjust the gain (brightness) in depth.
Slide a slide control to the left to decrease the gain in the corresponding specific 2D depth.
Slide a slide control to the right to increase the gain in the corresponding specific 2D depth.
Remarks:
•
The standard adjustment of the sliders is the central position because of the preset time
gain compensation for each scanhead.
•
The slider setting is not stored in a user program, because of the absolute position of the
sliders.
