M-Mode Imaging
Clearly Measure Cardiac Parameters

Displays the Movement of the Myocardium

Allows for accurate and real-time measurements of wall thickness, internal diameter, and heart rate.

M-mode examines a line of Motion over time.

Using M-mode in echocardiography displays the movement of the myocardium allowing for accurate and real-time measurements of wall thickness, internal diameter, and heart rate. It is from these parameters that many systolic parameters are derived (i.e. fractional shortening, ejection fraction, chamber volumes, etc.).

M-mode is useful in:

  • Echocardiography
  • Coronary artery measurements
  • Vessel diameters
  • Calculating heart rate manually

 

Examples of M-Mode

Right Ventricle

M-Mode of the right ventricle with wall thickness measurements.

Coronary Artery

M-Mode of the mouse coronary artery with vessel diameter measured.
