Sizing Tools
Gridlines can be viewed over the ultrasound image to provide an effective tool to estimate
vessel diameter.
• Press the Depth Marker button (/:\) to toggle the image gridlines on and off.
Catheter size icons are displayed in proportion to the vessel image at a selected depth. These icons
assist clinicians in determining the appropriate catheter size for the vessel being imaged.

Image Depth
The Site~Rite* 6 Ultrasound System image depth may be changed to image structures at different
depths. Adjusting the depth also adjusts the focus of the ultrasound. Adjusting the depth to place the
structure of interest at the appropriate focus will improve the ultrasound image.
