System Biopsy Safeguards

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury to the patient, conduct a biopsy procedure during
real-time imaging. When an image is frozen, the correct positioning of the needle cannot be
assured.
While using the biopsy function, you can switch to a different acceptable mode or freeze the
image. When you freeze the image, the color of the guidelines change from yellow to white.
Should you request an action that is not allowed during the biopsy function, the system displays
a message indicating that the action is not allowed.
Disconnecting the active transducer while in biopsy causes the system to exit the biopsy
function. The system displays a message prompting you to connect a transducer and then it
displays a message indicating that the biopsy function has ended.
