Recommended ultrasound transmission gel
EchoNous recommends the use of Aquasonic 100 Ultrasound Transmission Gel manufactured by Parker
Laboratories, INC. Fairfield, New Jersey 07004.
Recommended ultrasound probe sterile sheaths
Where fluid contamination is possible, cover the ultrasound probe with an appropriate sterile sheath; this
promotes asepsis and minimizes cleaning. Refer to the EchoNous
website for a list of compatible probe covers in
your country.
Be aware of latex allergy. Some commercially available transducer covers
contain latex.
