Imaging
To prevent misdiagnosis or harm to the patient, understand your system's
capabilities prior to use. The diagnostic capability differs for each transducer,
exam type, and imaging mode. Transducers are developed to specific criteria
depending on their physical application. These criteria include biocompatability
requirements. Understand the system's capabilities prior to use.
To avoid injury to the patient, use only an Ophthalmic (Oph) or Orbital (Orb)
exam when performing imaging through the eye. The FDA has established lower
acoustic energy limits for ophthalmic use. The system will not exceed these
limits only if the Orb or Oph exam type is selected.
