Scan button
A scanning symbol appears in the upper right corner of the display during the scan.
8. Hold the device steady while scanning; avoid changing its position, angle, or pressure. When you hear
the end‑scan tone, the scan is complete.
9. View the top half of the display. The bladder volume measurement is displayed in milliliters (mL).
If a flashing arrow is displayed, then the scan is off‑target, and the bladder was mostly outside the
ultrasound field of view. Re‑aim in the direction indicated by the flashing arrow and perform the scan again.
If a solid arrow is displayed, then the bladder was mostly inside the ultrasound field of view. The results
are satisfactory, but in order to ensure accuracy, Verathon
®
recommends that you re‑aim in the direction
of the arrow and perform the scan again.
If no arrow is displayed, then the bladder was completely contained within the ultrasound field of view.
The measurement is accurate. Continue with the procedure.
