Unit 4 · Apply Doppler Concepts
PW Doppler · PRF 3.0 kHz · 0° baseline

The peak systolic signal wraps below the baseline. What should the sonographer try first?

AIncrease the wall filter
BIncrease the scale (PRF)
CUse a higher-frequency transducer
Why: wrap-around is aliasing. Raising the PRF raises the Nyquist limit, so the peak fits on the display.
