Name
Explanation
Ultrasonic irradiation area
This incorporates an electronic linear transducer.
front mark
(direction mark)
Near the deflection portion corresponds the front mark (direction mark) on
the image display.
Deflection portion
When operate the left-lever , you can bend the tip up-down direction.
When operate the right-lever , you can bend the tip left -right direction..
Left-lever,Right-lever
This part is used to operate the deflection portion.
Operating head
When using the probe, hold this part by hand.
Insertion tube
The part is inserted into the patient's body with the ultrasonic irradiation area
and deflection portion.
Cable
This cable propagates the ultrasonic signals that are sent and received.
Connector
This cable propagates the ultrasonic signals that are sent and received.
Cap
The cap eliminates the gap with the probe and keeps airtightness.
Protect tube
Protects the probe from the external tube of torocar.
Caution
Do not pull, bend, twist, or apply excessive force to the cable.
The probe may malfunction due to cable disconnection
Do not subject the ultrasonic radiation part to hard impact.
The impact may cause damage to the transducer, and that results in noise or no echo in the image.
In most cases, the ultrasonic radiation part itself is not damaged because the part is made of elastic
material.
