Adding Color Power Doppler Imaging (option) Power Doppler Imaging (option) Description Power Doppler Imaging, also known as PDI, (option) is a color flow mapping technique used to map the strength of the Doppler signal rather than the frequency shift or velocity of the signal.
Page 144: Doppler
Doppler Doppler Introduction Time zero (the start of the trace) appears on the left side of the graph. As time progresses, the trace moves to the right. The baseline of the graph (representing zero velocity, zero frequency shift or no detected flow) appears as a solid line running horizontally across the display.
Page 145: Pulsed Wave Doppler
Doppler Pulsed Wave Doppler PW Doppler is typically used for displaying the speed, direction, and spectral content of blood flow at selected anatomical sites. PW Doppler operates in two different modes: conventional PW and High Pulse Repetition Frequency (HPRF). PW Doppler can be combined with B-Mode for rapidly selecting the anatomical site for PW Doppler examinations.
Page 146 Doppler High PRF High Pulse Repetition Frequency (HPRF) is a special operating mode of PW Doppler. In conventional mode, a single energy pulse is used to obtain signals for each line in the PW spectrum. In HPRF mode, multiple energy pulses are used. This allows higher velocities to be detected without aliasing artifacts.
Page 147: Continuous Wave Doppler
Doppler Continuous Wave Doppler Allows examination of blood flow data all along the Doppler Mode cursor rather than from any specific depth. Gather samples along the entire Doppler beam for rapid scanning of heart. Range gated CW allows information to be gathered at higher velocity.

Page 480 Probe Overview Disinfecting probes Ultrasound probes can be disinfected using liquid chemical germicides. The level of disinfection is directly related to the duration of contact with the germicide. Increased contact time produces a higher level of disinfection. After Each Use 2% Glutaraldehyde-based solutions have been shown to be very effective for this purpose.
Page 481 Probe Overview Disinfecting probes (cont’d) Special Disinfecting Instructions for the E721(MTZ): To properly disinfect the E721(MTZ) probe, the probe handle can be reassembled loosely so that the entire probe with handle can be immersed in the germicide solution. The adjustment screw must be kept loose so that germicide can penetrate to all surfaces.
Page 482 Probe Overview Disinfecting probes (cont’d) Ultrasound transducers can easily be damaged by improper WARNING handling and by contact with certain chemicals. Failure to follow these precautions can result in serious injury and equipment damage. Do not immerse the probe into any liquid beyond the level specified for that probe.

Page 501: Preparing The Biopsy Guide Attachment
Preparing for a Biopsy Preparing the Biopsy Guide Attachment Convex, Sector and Linear probes have optional biopsy guide attachments for each probe. The guide consists of a non-disposable bracket to attach to the probe, disposable needle clip to attach to the bracket, sheath, gel (sterile gel if necessary) and disposable needle barrels.
Page 502 Preparing for a Biopsy Fixed Needle Guide Assembly (cont’d) Place an adequate amount of coupling gel on the face of the probe. Place the proper sanitary sheath over the probe and biopsy bracket. Use the rubber bands supplied to hold the sheath in place.
Page 503 Preparing for a Biopsy Fixed Needle Guide Assembly (cont’d) Figure 15–20. Needle Barrels Place the needle barrel into the needle clip with the desired gauge facing the needle clip and snap into place. Figure 15–21. Needle Barrel Installation Ensure that all guide parts are seated properly prior to CAUTION perfoming a biopsy.
Page 504 Preparing for a Biopsy Multi-Angle Biopsy Guide Assembly DO NOT attempt to use the multi-angle biopsy bracket and WARNING needle guide until the manufacturer’s instructions, provided with the biopsy bracket and needle guide in the kit, have been read and thoroughly understood. Scan the patient and identify the target for biopsy.
Page 505 Preparing for a Biopsy Multi-Angle Biopsy Guide Assembly (cont’d) Pull up on the knob to freely move the needle guide attachment. Align the knob with the selected position of the needle guide attachment from MBX1, MBX2 and MBX3, to match the guidezone display on the ultrasound system.
Page 506 Preparing for a Biopsy Multi-Angle Biopsy Guide Assembly (cont’d) Place an adequate amount of coupling gel on the face of the probe. Place the proper sanitary sheath tightly over the probe and biopsy bracket. Use the rubber bands supplied to hold the sheath in place.
Page 507 Preparing for a Biopsy Multi-Angle Biopsy Guide Assembly (cont’d) Push the locking mechanism towards the bracket to secure the lock. Make sure the needle guide is firmly attached to the bracket. Lock Figure 15–28. Locking the Needle Clip Choose the desired gauge (size) needle barrel. Twist it back and forth to remove it from the plastic tree.
Page 508 Preparing for a Biopsy Biopsy Need Path Verification To verify that the path of the needle is accurately indicated within the guidezone on the system monitor, perform the following: Properly install the bracket and biopsy guide. Scan in a container filled with water. Display the biopsy guidezone on the monitor.
Page 509: E721 Probe Biopsy Guide
Preparing for a Biopsy Post Biopsy When the biopsy is complete, remove the needle barrel, needle clip and probe sheath. Properly dispose of these items in accordance with current facility guidelines. The biopsy bracket can be sterilized in a recommended disinfecting agent and reused.
Page 510 Preparing for a Biopsy Preparation (cont’d) Install the sheath: 1. Remove the sheath from its package. Do not unroll the sheath. NOTE: Remember to rinse all sanitary probe sheaths of powder before placing on the probe. Powder can degrade the displayed image. 2.
