Transverse or Sagittal Imaging

Click 

Simultan

/tap

 

LIVE DUAL

 to toggle simultaneous live transmission on or off. 

When simultaneous transmission is off, you can change which plane is active and 

which is frozen on bk3000/bk5000 by pressing the 

Split

 key or by placing the cursor 

on the image you want to be active and pressing the 

Select

 key. On the bkSpecto, you 

tap the dual view button 

 to toggle between the views.

Endfire Imaging

E14C4t can perform endfire imaging. A long press on the transducer’s 

Sagittal/Endfire

 button activates endfire imaging. On the screen, this is indicated by 

the letter 

E

, which appears to the right of the transducer number. To switch imaging 

plane on bk3000/bk5000, click 

E

 and select transverse (

T

) or sagittal (

S

). On the 

bkSpecto, tap 

T

 or 

S

 

on the touchscreen.

When you activate endfire imaging, one image appears (and by default, simultaneous 

imaging is off). You must enable split screen imaging as there is no defined isocenter 

in this context. When you press the system’s 

Split

 key/tap 

DUAL

, two images appear 

on the screen. The endfire image appears and either a transverse or sagittal image 

appears, depending on what was last used during imaging.
Click

to toggle simultaneous live transmission on or off. 

Imaging Without Puncture or Biopsy

When E14C4t is used for transrectal imaging without the puncture facilities, the 

dummy bracket UA1325-w must be in place to give the transducer a smooth surface 

and minimize discomfort for the patient. The dummy bracket clicks into position on 

the transducer to cover the open channel (see Figure 3).

Figure 3. E14C4t and the dummy channel bracket UA1325-w.

Note:

 The dummy bracket must be removed before E14C4t is prepared for 

disinfection. The bracket can be disinfected using the same methods as explained 

later under UA1326.

Adjusting Image Area and Using Expanded Sector (Trapezoidal View)

The width of the image area can be adjusted using the Width key on the system’s 

control panel. See the applicable system user guide for instructions.
