Abstract
Pixel data stored in a display memory of an ultrasonic scanning system is updated in response to new pixel data generated from a reflected ultrasonic wave and stored pixel data. A lookup table of pixel values is provided in a second memory, and the second memory is addressed using the new pixel data and the stored pixel data. The value stored in the second memory at the address is then used to update the display memory.
