Crystals
The transducer is a mechanical (single-element) multifrequency transducer with a
built-in 3D mover. Inside the transducer head is a double crystal assembly where 2
crystals sit back to back. The assembly can rotate inside the transducer to give a 360º
field of view. No moving parts contact human tissue.
H or L The selected crystal is indicated after the transducer number at the top of the screen:
H (high-frequency) or L (low-frequency).
The crystal assembly can be positioned manually or – if you have a 3D option
installed (see “3D Imaging” on page 25) – by the system.
