2-20 Getting started
For general use, apply a liberal amount of gel between the transducer and the body. For interventional use,
apply a transducer sheath.
Sheaths
To apply a transducer sheath
1 Place gel inside the sheath. Make sure that the gel is at the end of the sheath.
2 Insert the transducer into the sheath.
3 Pull the sheath over the transducer and cable until the sheath is fully extended.
4 Secure the sheath using the bands supplied with the sheath.
5 Check for and eliminate air bubbles between the face of the transducer and the sheath.
Air bubbles between the face of the transducer and the sheath may affect the ultrasound image.
6 Inspect the sheath to ensure that there are no holes or tears.

WARNING Use market-cleared, sterile transducer sheaths and sterile coupling gel for
transrectal, transvaginal, or guided-needle procedures. Do not apply the
transducer sheath and coupling gel until you are ready to perform the
procedure. After use, remove and discard the single-use sheath, and clean and
disinfect the transducer using a FUJIFILM SonoSite-recommended disinfectant.
