Abstract

A user defines a line of study by two or more icons placed on a two-dimensional motion image. A velocity profile or the estimated spectra at each point along the line of study are displayed as a function of position along the line of study. The velocity and variance parameters displayed are computed in reference to velocity direction angles selected by the user. The information displayed is obtained from scan converted information to facilitate the process. One or more spectral strips may be displayed in addition at one or more range gate positions.
