6LE7s probe:
NO. Name Function
<1> Transducer head It utilizes the piezoelectric effect to convert
electrical signals into ultrasound waves, which
are transmitted to the body, and to generate
electrical signals when receiving the reflected
ultrasound waves (echoes).The lens on the
surface is the acoustic lens. Apply ultrasound gel
on the acoustic lens.
<2> Needle-guided bracket fix
tab
Mount the needle-guided bracket using this tab.
<3> Water injection/drainage port Used for inject/drain water
<4> Cable This transmits electrical signals between the
transducer body and connector.
<5> Connector This connects the transducer to the ultrasonic
diagnostic system.
