same line as the ultrasound system. A dedicated line sh ould be used for the ultrasound system.
Electrical and electronic equipment may produce EMI unintentionally as the result of a defect. Sources
of EMI include the following:
•Medical lasers.
•Scanners.
•Cauterizing guns.
•Computers.
•Monitors.
•Fans.
•Gel warmers.
•Microwave ovens.
•Portable phones.

2-2-7EMI Prevention/Abatement
The following table lists recommendations for preventing EMI:
Table 2-4 EMI Prevention/ Abatement
EMI RuleDetails
Ground the unit.
Be aware of RF sources.
Replace and/or reassemble
all screws, RF gaskets,
covers and cores.
Replace broken RF gaskets.
Do not place labels where
RF gaskets touch metal.
Use GE-specified harnesses
and peripherals.
Take care with cellular
phones.
Properly address peripheral
cables.
Poor grounding is the most likely reason an ultrasound system will have noisy images.
Check the grounding of the power cord and power outlet.
Keep the unit at least 5m (16.4 ft) away from other EMI sources. Special shielding may
be required to eliminate interference problems caused by high frequency, high powered
radio or video broadcast signals.
After you finish repairing or updating the system, replace all covers and tighten all
screws. Any cable with an external connection requires a magnet wrap at each end.
Install the shield over the front of the card cage. Loose or missing covers or RF gaskets
allow radio frequencies to interfere with the ultrasound signals.
If more than 20% or a pair of the fingers on an RF gasket are broken, replace the gasket.
Do not turn ON the unit until any loose metallic part is removed and replaced, if required.
Never place a label where RF gaskets meet the unit. Otherwise, the gap created will
permit RF leakage. In case a label has been found in such a location, move the label to
a different, appropriate location.
The interconnect cables are grounded and require ferrite beads and other shielding.
Cable length, material, and routing are all important; do not make any changes that do
not meet all specifications.
Cellular phones may transmit a 5 V/m signal that causes image artifacts.
Do not allow cables to lie across the top of the system. Loop any peripheral cable excess
length into one bundle.

2-3-4-4Purpose of the DICOM Network Function
DICOM services provide the operator with clinically useful features for moving images and patient
information over a hospital network. Examples of DICOM services include the transfer of images to
workstations for viewing or transferring images to remote printers. As an added benefit, transferring
images in this manner frees up the on-board moni tor and peripherals, enabling viewing to be done while
scanning continues. With DICOM, images can be archived, stored, and retrieved faster, easier, a nd at
a lower cost.
2-3-4-5DICOM Option Pre-Installation Requirements
To configure the Vivid™ S60/Vivid™ S70 ultrasound system to work with other network connections,
the network administrator must provide the required information, which should include the following:
•Details:DICOM network details for the Vivid™ S60/Vivid™ S70 unit,
including the host name, local port, IP address, AE title and net
mask.
•Routing Information:IP addresses for the default gate way and other routers in use at
the site.
•DICOM Application Information:Details of the DICOM devices in use at the site, including the
