Applying In order to assure optimal transmission of energy between the
patient and probe, a conductive gel or couplant must be applied
liberally to the patient where scanning will be performed.

they are known to cause probe damage:
• Methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, or any other alcohol-based
product
• Mineral oil
• Iodine
• Lotions
• Lanolin
• Aloe Vera
• Olive Oil
• Methyl or Ethyl Parabens (para hydroxybenzoic acid)
• Dimethylsilicone

damage the probe and void the warranty. Please refer to the
probe care card for GE approved probe gels.

flush eye thoroughly with water.
