4. Articulating
Controls
The control handle section of the probe features two control levers
that are used to control the movement and position of the articulating
section/transducer.
Never bend or manipulate the articulating section of the probe
with your hands or fingers. This can result in severe damage
to the articulating mechanism.
The Laparoscopic Ultrasound probe is a precision equipment and care
must be exercised to avoid damaging it. The Laparoscopic Ultrasound
probe should only be handled by trained personnel.
The left lever controls articulating in the up/down plane.
Forward=down; backward=up. The right lever controls articulation in
the left/right plane. Forward=left; backward=right. Refer to
Fig.2.
