Otherwise, electrical shock may occur. ●● After disinfecting the accessories, wash out chemicals or discharge gases thoroughly from the accessories. Residual chemicals or gases could result in damage to the accessories, and be harmful to human bodies. ●● Only trained physicians or sonographers under ultrasound guidance can handle the biopsy needle guides. During the operation, the operator must observe proper needle insertion sequencing with the needle guide to avoid undue discomforts, unnecessary risks or injuries to the patient. ●● Use the legally marketed probe sheath. Refer to package labeling to determine latex content. Natural rubber latex may cause anaphylactic reactions in some individuals. Avoid contact with items containing natural rubber latex. Refer to the FDA Medical Alert, March 29, 1991. ●● Use the legally marketed coupling gel in accordance with relevant local regulations. Read and understand all precautions in the relevant manual of the coupling gel before use. ●● Prepare, use, store and dispose the cleaner, disinfectant and sterilant according to the instructions provided by manufacturers. Do not disconnect the probe during the real-time scan. Otherwise, it may damage the probe and the system.

1.2.4

Biohazard Considerations ●● To minimize the risk of cross-contamination or infectious diseases when performing a biopsy, the operator should wear disposable gloves, protective clothing or protective goggles if it is needed. Follow the working regulations strictly in case the skin contacts the samples. ●● Some disinfectants or sterilants are acid or alkaline. Use them with caution, and prevent hands or clothing from coming into direct contact with them. Wash hands or eyes immediately in case of any contamination by disinfectants. ●● Dispose of cleaners, disinfectants or solutions in accordance with local standards or regulations.

1.3

!

Acoustic Power Principle ●● Perform ultrasound procedures prudently under the guidance of the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle. Only expose the patient to the lowest practical transmit power levels in the shortest possible period to achieve a satisfactory diagnosis. ●● Freeze the image at any time if you are not operating the system for a long period of time. ●● Do not scan the same part of an patient continuously or expose the patient to prolonged scanning. Doing so may harm the patient. ●● Do not expose the fetus to prolonged scanning in the Doppler mode. ●● Although the output power is automatically controlled for the selected applications, high TI values should be kept to a minimum or avoided in obstetric applications.

1 Safety ●● You should be familiar with the performances and operations of the system, observe the ultrasound output parameters on the screen at all times.

1.3.1

Biological Safety Diagnostic ultrasound is recognized as being safe, but the possibility of biological effects exists when using it in high exposure levels and long exposure times. Thus ultrasound should be used in a prudent manner to provide medical benefit to the patient.

1.3.2

ALARA It is required to practice ALARA when using ultrasound energy. Practicing ALARA ensures that the total energy level is controlled below a low enough level at which bioeffects are not generated while diagnostic information is being accumulated. The total energy is controlled by output intensity and total radiation time. The output intensity necessary for examinations differs depending on the patient and the clinical case. Not all examinations can be performed with an extremely low level of acoustic energy. Controlling the acoustic level at an extremely low level leads to low-quality images or insufficient Doppler signals, adversely affecting the reliability of the diagnosis. However, increasing the acoustic power more than necessary does not always contribute to an increase in quality of information required for diagnosis, rather increasing the risk of generating bioeffects. The operator must take responsibility for the safety of the patient and utilize the ultrasound deliberately. Deliberate use of the ultrasound means that output power of the ultrasound must be selected based on ALARA. Additional information regarding the concept of ALARA and the possible bioeffects of Ultrasound are available in a document from the AIUM (American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine) titled “Medical Ultrasound Safety”.

1.3.3

Mechanical and Thermal Indices The display of the system consists of two parts: Thermal Index (TI) and Mechanical Index (MI).

■

MI/TI Explanation In October 1987, the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) ratified a report prepared by its Bioeffects Committee (Bioeffects Considerations for the Safety of Diagnostic Ultrasound, J Ultrasound Med.,Sept. 1988: Vol. 7, No. 9 Supplement), sometimes referred to as the StoweReport, which reviewed available data on possible effects of ultrasound exposure. Another report “Bioeffects and Safety of Diagnostic Ultrasound” dated January28, 1993, provides more current information. ●● Mechanical Index (MI) Mechanical bioeffects are threshold phenomena that occur when a certain level of output is exceeded. The threshold level varies, however, with different types of tissue. The potential mechanical bioeffects varies with peak pressure and ultrasound frequency. The MI accounts for these two factors. The higher the MI value, the greater the likelihood of mechanical bioeffects occurring. There is no specific MI value that means that a mechanical effect is actually occurring. The MI should be used as a guide for implementing the ALARA principle. ●● Thermal Index (TI) The TI value informs the operator about the conditions that might lead to an increase in temperature on the surface of the body, within the body tissue, or at the point of focus of the ultrasound beam on bone. That is, the TI value informs the operator about the potential temperature rise in body tissue. It is an estimate of temperature increase in body tissue with specific properties. The actual amount of any temperature rise is influenced by factors such as tissue type, vascularity, mode of operation and others. The TI value should be used as a guide for implementing the ALARA principle. Depending on the examination and type of tissue involved, TI could be one of three types: −− Soft Tissue Thermal Index (TIS) is used when imaging soft tissue only, it provides an estimate of potential temperature rise in soft tissue. −− Bone Thermal Index (TIB) is used when bone is near the focus of the image as in the third trimester, it provides an estimate of potential temperature rise in the bone or adjacent soft tissue.

4

Basic User Manual

1 Safety −− Cranial Bone Thermal Index (TIC) is used when bone is near the skin surface as in transcranial examination, it provides an estimate of potential temperature rise in the bone or adjacent soft tissue.

■

MI/TI Display TI and MI values are displayed in real time on the screen. The operator should observe these index values during examinations and ensure that exposure time and output values are maintained at the minimum amounts needed for effective diagnosis. The MI and TI precision is 0.1.

1.3.4

Transducer Surface Temperature Limits For probes intended for internal applications, e.g. the endocavitary probe or transesophageal probe, the surface temperature of the probe may change by adjusting system parameters. The maximum surface temperature of the endocavitary probes is 43°C. To protect the patient against the harm of excessive temperature, the probe stops working automatically when its temperature reaches the limit. The surface temperature of the probe is displayed on the screen.

Transducer Tip Temperature

Imaging Functions that Change Acoustic Output The qualified operator may use the system controls to limit the ultrasound output and to adjust the quality of the images. The operator should observe the acoustic output display for possible effects. There are three categories of system controls relative to output. They are controls that have direct effect on the output, controls that indirectly control output and controls that are receiver controls.
