In this lab we were asked to complete a set of images using spectral doppler. I find this to be pretty neat. I like that it allows you to see the blood flow within the organs. I did have a bit of trouble getting just the right amount of color. I always felt that I was not getting enough or turned the gain up to high and ended up with too much noise. From what I know this picture that I have posted today has a pretty good amount of color. There is not very much excess noise visualized around the organ. You are also getting a pretty clear picture of the blood flow that is entering and exiting the spleen. I feel that once we learn more about the physics and all that goes into producing and using the correct amount of color will make this process much easier. It will also make me much more aware of just what it is that is expected of me when using the spectral doppler. Overall I did enjoy this lab. I was not fully aware of all the stuff that we are able to do with ultrasound until I started this program, and am excited to learn about all the other stuff that we can do.
