Assembling the Bracket and Guide
Each transducer works with only one bracket. These instructions describe how to
assemble the bracket for the 5C2A transducer. The brackets attach to 8EC4A transducers
in the same way as for the 12L5.
You can also follow the procedure provided in the biopsy kit to assemble the bracket and
needle guide.
Before performing a biopsy, you must assemble the needle guide parts and prepare the
transducer for the biopsy by completing the following steps:
1. Place an appropriate amount of gel inside the cover or on the transducer face. Poor
imaging may result if no gel is used.
2. Insert the transducer into the cover, making sure to use proper sterile technique. Pull
the cover tightly over the transducer face to remove wrinkles and air bubbles, taking
care to avoid puncturing the cover.
3. Secure the cover with the bands packaged with the cover.
4. Inspect the cover to ensure there are no holes or tears.
5. Using proper sterile technique, snap the unlocked needle guide onto the attachment
area of the bracket.
6. Push the lock into the locked position.
7. Select the appropriate size needle guide insert and slide it into position.
8. Use the appropriate length needle to reach the target area.
