of the LOGIQ 500. It is intended to be used in
conjunction with the Basic User Manual in order to provide
the information necessary to operate the system safely.
The Basic User Manual (TRANSLATED) provides
information needed by the user to operate the system
safely. It describes basic functions of the system, safety
features, operating modes, basic measurements/
calculations, probes, user care and maintenance.
The Advanced Reference Manual (ENGLISH ONLY) is
intended for the trained, professional user. It contains all
the information found in the Quick Start Guide and Basic
User Manual, as well as information on options, advanced
customization techniques and data tables.
The LOGIQ 500 manuals are written for users who are
familiar with basic ultrasound principals and techniques. They
do not include sonography training or clinical procedures.

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.

Important Safety Considerations
The following topic headings (
Patient Safety
, and
Equipment
and Personnel Safety
) are intended to make the equipment
user aware of particular hazards associated with the use of this
equipment and the extent to which injury can occur if
precautions are not observed. Additional precautions may be
provided throughout the manual. The equipment user is
obligated to be familiar with these concerns and avoid
conditions that could result in injury.
Patient Safety
Related Hazards
The concerns listed can seriously affect the safety of patients
undergoing a diagnostic ultrasound examination.
Always include proper identification with all patient data and
verify the accuracy of the patient’s name or ID numbers when
entering such data. Make sure correct patient ID is provided on
all recorded data and hard copy prints. Identification errors
could result in an incorrect diagnosis.
Equipment malfunction or incorrect settings can result in
measurement errors or failure to detect details within the image.
The equipment user must become thoroughly familiar with the
equipment operation in order to optimize its performance and
recognize possible malfunctions. Applications training is
available through the local GE representative. Added
confidence in the equipment operation can be gained by
establishing a quality assurance program.
Damaged probes or improper use and manipulation of
intracavitary probes can result in injury or increased risk of
infection. Inspect probes often for sharp, pointed, or rough
surface damage that could cause injury or tear protective
barriers. Never use excessive force when manipulating
intracavitary probes. Become familiar with all instructions and
precautions provided with special purpose probes.

Related Hazards (cont’d)
A damaged probe can also increase the risk of electric shock if
conductive solutions come in contact with internal live parts.
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
Probes and Biopsy
.
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
s low as reasonably achievable
(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.

optimization with controls that have no affect on Acoustic
Output, such as Gain and TGC.
NOTE: Refer to the Optimization sections of the Modes chapter
for a complete discussion of each control.
Be sure to have read and understood control explanations for
each Mode intended to be used before attempting to adjust the
Acoustic Output control or any control that can affect Acoustic
Output.
Use the minimum necessary output to get the best diagnostic
image or measurement during an examination. Begin the exam
with the probe that provides an optimum focal depth and
penetration.

In order to assure that an exam does not start at a high output
level, the LOGIQ 500 initiates scanning at a reduced default
output level. This reduced level is preset programmable and
depends upon exam category, application preset and probe
selected. It takes effect when the system is powered on or New
Patient is selected.

Brightness and Contrast
Adjusting the monitor’s contrast and brightness is one of the
most important factors for proper image quality. If these
controls are set incorrectly, the Gain, TGC, Dynamic Range and
even Acoustic Output may have to be changed more often than
necessary to compensate.
The proper setup displays a complete gray scale. The lowest
level of black should just disappear into the background and the
highest white should be bright, but not saturated.
To adjust the brightness and contrast:
1. Press the monitor’s toggle button (2) for brightness and
contrast. Confirm that the brightness (or contrast) is
displayed on the monitor. If the contrast is displayed,
press the toggle button again.
