Acoustic Output This section of the operator’s manual applies to the overall system including the main unit, probes, accessories and peripherals. This section contains important safety information for operators of the device, pertaining to acoustic output and how to control patient exposure through use of the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle.
Page 326
H Acoustic Output Additional information regarding the concept of ALARA and the possible bioeffects of Ultrasound is “Medical available in a document from the AIUM (American Institute of Ultrasound Medicine) title Ultrasound Safety”. MI/TI Explanation H.4.1 Basic Knowledge of MI and TI Mechanical Bioeffect and Thermal Bioeffect The relationship of various ultrasound output parameters (frequency, acoustic pressure and intensity, etc.) to bioeffects is not fully understood presently.
Page 327
H Acoustic Output Although the output power is automatically controlled for the selected applications, high TI values should be kept to a minimum or avoided in obstetric applications. WFUMB (World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology) guidelines: state that temperature increase of 4 degree C for 5 min or more should be considered as potentially hazardous to embryonic and fetal tissue.
Page 328
H Acoustic Output Following the ALARA restriction, you are allowed to increase the acoustic power under FDA 510 (k) Guidance-Track 3 limits and to set it in the image preset screen. The acoustic output of the system has been measured and calculated in accordance with IEC60601- 2-37: 2015, FDA 510(K) GUIDANCE, IEC 62359: 2017, Ultrasonics-Field characterization-Test methods for the deter mination of thermal and mechanical indices related to medical diagnostic ultrasonic fields.
