2 Inspection before Use
Prior to use, the probe and accessories must be carefully inspected for appropriate use. If
you find any damage, do not use them and contact a service support immediately.
2.1 Inspection for Appropriate Connection
1) Confirm that the ultrasound diagnostic scanner is correctly operating. Please refer to
the instruction manual of the scanner for the operation.
2) Confirm that any unauthorized device/instrument such as an unauthorized biopsy
attachment is not attached or connected to the probe.
3) Confirm that the Sterile Puncture Adapter and settings of the scanner are appropriate
for the probe. Attach the Sterile Puncture Adapter to the probe according to "3.
Operation Procedure". Display the "Needle guide line" on the monitor. (Refer to the
operation manual of the ultrasound diagnostic scanner.) Keep the probe head under
sterile water and insert a puncture needle in the Sterile Puncture Adapter, then
confirm that the needle is inserted smoothly and the echo of the needle is displayed on
the "Needle guide line"(dot line) on the monitor.
2.2 Inspection for Material Surface
1) Visually inspect the surface of the probe head, housing and cable for any crack, scratch
or denaturalization.
2) Visually inspect the envelope of the Sterile Puncture Adapter for any break,
deformation, crack or denaturalization. If you find any damage, do not use the Sterile
Puncture Adapter.
3) Visually inspect the Magnetic sensor attachment and the Spacer for EZU‐RV2S for any
crack, deformation or denaturalization.
Beware not to lose the Spacer for EZU‐RV2S since it is so small.
