Obtaining good images is not enough. The images must
indicate any abnormalities clearly. The α5 SV eliminates the
signals that are not relevant to imaging to the greatest extent
possible to display images accurately.

Arbitrary positioning of the M-mode cursor
Up to three M-mode cursors can be positioned at any place and angle on a B-mode image. Meanwhile, the
Cine Memory allows reconstruction of M-mode images and repositioning of the cursors any number of
C.H.E. times after freezing, for smoother and more accurate M-mode examination.
Contrast Harmonic Echo
In the case of low sound pressure type contrast agent, such
as SonoVue, phase shift of the echoes occurs by resonance

Tissue Doppler Imaging, which visualizes the velocity of systolic/diastolic movements of the
myocardium as a color image, clearly shows the form, velocity, direction and other information at the
same time. TDI performs best when observing abnormal wall movements and evaluating asynchrony
as well as systolic/diastolic assessment with PW Doppler.
