Physical Principle Used

The transmission and reception of mechanical high frequency
waves through a transducer associated with a computer that
creates the image in a digital memory, are used for the creation
of medical ultrasound images. The spreading of mechanical
ultrasound waves produces echoes when body changes
density. In the case of human tissue, these echoes are created
when the signal goes from an adipose tissue (fat) region to a
muscular tissue region, among others. The echoes are
returned through the same transducer that converts them back
into electrical signals. These signals are highly amplified,
processed by filters with several frequency and time response
options, and finally scanned and stored in a digital memory.
Once in the memory, the image can be displayed in real-time on
a monitor. Several analog and digital circuits transform the
electrical high frequency signals into a flow of digital signals,
allowing the composition of the image in the memory. All the
signal reception and transmission parameters are controlled by
the main computer. Through the selection of these parameters
by the operator, the system modifies the transmission and
reception features allowing a wide range of uses, from
obstetrics to peripheral vascular examinations. As its design is
based on solid state components, the system is free from
variations over time and requires very little maintenance. All
the transducers are accurate solid state devices, allowing
control of creation of images from convex, micro-convex and
linear transducers. The use of a solid state design allows a
wide range of sweep parameters that can be optimized
resulting in a consistent creation of fine anatomical details with
excellent penetration and dynamic contrast band in the tissue.
The system features a sophisticated design, providing multiple
functions of diagnostic and function setup keys. This makes the
system user-friendly and easy to use.

A damaged probe can also increase the risk of electric shock if

Inspect probes often for cracks or openings in the housing and
holes in and around the acoustic lens or other damage that
could allow liquid entry. Become familiar with the probe’s use
and care precautions outlined in

Ultrasound energy, even at diagnostic levels, is capable of
damaging sensitive tissues if adequate precautions are not
followed. The wrong combination of equipment settings, probe
positioning, and tissue type can result in injury. Please become
thoroughly familiar with equipment controls that affect acoustic
output levels as well as the output display.

Follow the principle of a
(ALARA) when scanning a patient. During each ultrasound
examination, the clinical user is expected to weigh the medical
benefit of the diagnostic information obtained against the risk of
potential harmful effects. Once an optimal image is achieved
the need for increasing acoustic output or prolonging the
exposure cannot be justified.

It is recommended that all users receive proper training in
applications before performing them in a clinical setting. Please
contact the local GE representative for training assistance.
ALARA training is provided by GE Application Specialists.

180 kg [397 lbs] is recommended) is capable of
handling the weight of the system.

5. Ensure that the lift is in good working order.

6. Secure the system while it is on the lift so that it cannot
roll. Use either wood chocks, restraining straps, or
other similar types of constraints. Do not attempt to
hold it in place by hand.

.

WARNING

.

NOTE: Strap the system below its handle so that the system

does not break loose.

Never ride on the lift with the system. A person’s
weight coupled with the weight of the system may
exceed the load capacity of the lift.

7. Employ two to three persons to load and unload safely
from a vehicle.

8. Load the unit aboard the vehicle carefully and over its
center of gravity. Keep the unit still and upright.

NOTE: Do not lay the unit down.

9. Ensure that the system is firmly secured while inside
the vehicle. Any movement, coupled with the weight of
the system, could cause it to break loose.
