This is the third major function of receiving.
What is compression?
100
These types of functions can be performed on a frozen screen.
What are postprocessing functions?
100
This type of SNR does not really change the ratio between signal and noise, but still gives off the impression of such.
What is apparent SNR?
100
A consequence of reducing this through compression is that some signal information may be lost.
What is the dynamic range?
200
This is the number you get when you calculate two to the 7th power.
What is 128?
200
The two types of compounding able to be performed by an ultrasound system are this and this.
What are spatial and frequency?
200
When this button is activated, a system knows to keep repeating the same pixel data over and over again with each frame.
What is the freeze button?
200
Dynamic receive focus is an automatic function which aids in improving this specific type of detail quality.
What is lateral resolution?

Binary # 011011 is equal to this number.
What is 27?
300
A system's amplifier has approximately this many decibels of a dynamic range.
What is 100?
300
This type of display would represent white as anechoic.
What is a negative image?
300
Lower SPLs as a result of harmonic imaging are partially responsible for this type of detail improvement.
What is axial resolution?
300
This type of display technology divides each pixel into three sub pixels by color filters, resulting in a red, green, and blue sub-pixel.
What is LCD?

A threshold value to automatically eliminate the weakest amplitudes is the function of this part of a receiver.
What is reject?
400
Before going to a display monitor, data must go through this process after leaving memory.
What is digital to analog conversion?
400
A high persistence setting gives off the appearance of this type of quality being poor.
What is temporal resolution?
400
Converting the A-mode lines into B-mode lines and organizing successive lines of data into a formatted image are the two roles of this instrument component.
What is the scan converter?
500
If a 10 MHz transducer is used through average soft tissue, this is the number of decibels / cm that the slope of compensation should be.
What is 5?
500
This specific format of a certain technology uses a combination of special pulsing along with a cancelling method to eliminate fundamental sound waves in a system's receiver.
What is pulse inversion harmonic imaging?
500
Reassignment of echo strength brightness after data has already been stored through memory can be performed with this technology.
What is gray mapping?
500
This 'salt and pepper' appearance, often made worse by using lower frequency transducers, may be improved by using your system's compounding feature.
What is speckle, or 'acoustic speckle'?
500
This equipment manufacturer has taken the parallel processing technique to the extreme of producing as many as 15 lines simultaneously.
