➤ To prepare the transducer for an endocavity exam
WARNING
Wear gloves during the following procedure.
1. Place an adequate amount of ultrasound transmission gel at the tip of the
inside surface of the transducer cover.
CAUTION
Use ultrasound transmission gel only inside the transducer cover; do not use
ultrasound transmission gel outside of the transducer cover. For proper transmis-
sion of the acoustic beam, use the ultrasound transmission gel supplied by Philips,
or another glycol, glycerol, or water-based couplant inside the transducer cover.
Do not use mineral oil, oil-based couplants, or other unapproved materials
because they might damage the transducer.
2. Place the transducer cover over the transducer or unroll the transducer
cover until it covers the insertable portion of the transducer.
