9.1 General Description
Fig. 9-1 Convex Probe Overview
The probes provide high spatial and contrast ultrasound imaging of frequencies from 2.0MHz to
11.0MHz. These probes operate by pulsing sound waves into the body and listening to the
returning echoes to produce high-resolution brightness mode, and a real time display.
9.2 Care and Maintenance
The probes used by this machine can be divided into two series: body surface and intracavity.
During all ultrasound scan, ultrasonic radiation on the human body should be as less as possible.
The probes that come with the system are designed to be durable and dependable. These
precision instruments should be inspected daily and handled with care. Please observe the
following precautions:
1. Only person Received professional training can use the probes.
2. Probes can’t receive pressure sterilizer, when operation in sterile area, disposable sterile probe
hood should be applied.
3. Make sure not to drop the transducer on hard surface. This can damage the transducer
elements and compromise the electrical safety of the transducer.
4. Be careful when doing operation, make sure not to scratch the probe surface.
