Resolution integral, characteristic resolution and depth of field for each of the transducers measured over a 0–10 mm depth range
| Scanner | Transducers | Resolution integral, R | Characteristic resolution, DR (μm) | Depth of field, LR (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vevo 770 (tracking) | RMV 704 | 72 | 93 | 6.7 |
| Vevo 770 (mean, non-tracking) | RMV 704 | 25 | 132 | 3.3 |
| Vevo 2100 | MS550S | 51 | 181 | 9.2 |
| Vevo 2100 | MS550D | 47 | 181 | 8.5 |
| Diasus | L8-16 | 17 | 480 | 8.2 |
| Diasus | L10-22 | 15 | 490 | 7.5 |
| iU22 | L15-7io | 16 | 530 | 8.5 |
| Vivid 5 | i13Lv | 15 | 560 | 8.3 |
| iU22 | L17-5 | 12 | 600 | 7.1 |
| MicroMaxx | HFL38/13-6 | 7 | 930 | 6.8 |
The results are ranked with respect to characteristic resolution such that those transducers with smallest characteristic resolution are at the top of the table.
