Endovaginal, Anorectal, and Transrectal Imaging with Type 8838

Make sure that there is enough imaging gel to cover the entire front end of the 

transducer (the black part of the transducer). This prevents image artifacts 

caused by air bubbles.

2

Pull the transducer cover over the transducer.

3

Before imaging, apply a small amount of gel to the outside of the transducer 
cover to create good acoustic contact between the patient and the transducer.

4

Re-apply the gel frequently to ensure good screen images.

Using the Transducer Control Button

The control button on the transducer controls the imaging.

Press the button to 

Start

 or 

Stop

 imaging (freeze frame).

The transducer makes a “beep” sound each time you press the button.

The button function can be customized. For more information, see the user guide for 
the system and “3D Imaging” on page 11.

Changing Orientation

To change the orientation of the image on the monitor, refer to the applicable system 
user guide for instructions.

To change the angle of the 2D imaging plane, see “Rotating the 2D Imaging Plane” 
on page 10.

Endovaginal, Anorectal, and Transrectal Imaging with Type 8838

Both 2D and 3D imaging in Type 8838 is on the sagittal plane as shown in Figure 2 
and Figure 3.

NOTE:

 The default position for the imaging plane is opposite the button on the 

handle. All linear images start with the linear array in this default position where it 
can display live, 2D images.

Caution 

T-c3

Use only water-based gel (sterile if you are using a sterile transducer cover). Products 
containing parabens, petroleum, or mineral oils may harm the transducer or transducer 
cover.

WARNING

Colo-w1

Do not use excessive force during insertion. Do not make excessive lateral movements 
during or after insertion. Risk of injury or tissue damage to the patient could occur under 
certain circumstances. A digital palpation of the rectum may need to be carried out by a 
clinician prior to insertion or use of the probe as a precautionary measure.
