Introduction The Quick Start Guide (TRANSLATED) provides a step-by-step description of the basic features and operation of the LOGIQ 200 PRO Series. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the User Manual in order to provide the information necessary to operate the system safely.

t

The Quick Start Guide takes the user from system familiarization through power on, patient data entry, exam category/preset selection, scan modes/adjustments, basic measurements, report pages, recording images and power off.

t

The LOGIQ 200 PRO Series manuals are written for users who are familiar with basic ultrasound principals and techniques. They do not include sonography training or clinical procedures.

Prescription Device (for USA only) CAUTION: United States law restricts this device to sale or use by or on the order of a physician.

Power On To connect the system to the electrical supply: S

Ensure that the wall outlet is a minimum 20 amp dedicated circuit for 120 VAC (USA) or 7.5 amp dedicated circuit for 220–240 VAC (Europe).

S

Make sure that the power switch is turned off.

S

Unwrap the power cable. Make sure to allow sufficient slack in the cable so that the plug is not pulled out of the wall if the system is moved slightly.

S

Push the power plug securely into the wall outlet.

To power on the system press the Power switch, located to the left of the probe connectors, to the on(I) position.

Starting an Exam Patient Entry Menu New Patient

Press New Patient key at the beginning of each patient study to reset the system and enter new patient data. When the New Patient key is pressed, the Patient Entry menu appears.

Use the Trackball to move the highlight cursor to the Exam Category Selection line. Enter the desired exam number and fill in the appropriate patient data. Highlight EXIT and press Return or press New Patient again when the patient entry menu data has been completed. The system takes a few seconds to load new exam category parameters and calibrate the attached transducers before entering the scan mode.

Scan Mode Controls Select the desired display mode or combination of display modes (B-Mode or M-Mode).

M Mode

B Mode

If the dual display mode (split screen) is desired, the L and R keys activate the Left or Right displayed image. R

1. TGC-Controls the gain of the received echoes at a specific depth. 2. Dynamic Range-Controls how echo intensities are converted to shades of gray scale that can be adjusted. 3. Map-Determines how the echo intensity levels received are presented as shades of gray. 4. Frame Average-Averages previous frames of image data with the current frame. 5. Edge Enhance-Brings out subtle tissue differences and boundaries by enhancing the gray scale differences corresponding to the edges of structures. 6. Multi Freq-Controls the penetration. 7. Scan Width-Used to widen or narrow the scan width to maximize the image’s field of view.

Rotation-Changes the depth at which the selected number of focal zones are optimized. 12. Reverse-The GE logo at the top of the sector wedge corresponds to the orientation mark on the probe body. When Reverse is active, the image flips and the GE logo switches to correspond to the probe mark. 13. Depth-Controls the distance over which the B–Mode images anatomy. 14. B/M Gain-Controls the amount of echo information displayed in an image. 15. Biopsy-Enables the electronic biopsy zone(s) available for the active probe.

M-Mode Controls Since M-Mode is basically a single B-Mode scan vector displayed over time, basic controls that affect the B-Mode display also affect the M-Mode display. See Quick Start 9 for comments on these controls. TGC and Depth affect both the M-Mode and B-Mode displays. If the scan area size is reduced and the position changed, the M-Mode cursor will follow the position change to stay within the displayed scan area. The Dual Format keys work the same as in dual B-Mode, but both B-Mode and M-Mode are displayed on the left and right sides of the screen. The keyboard controls that effect M-Mode are as follows:

M-Mode Optimization Adjustments for... Improve M-Mode

Do the Following... 1. Increase/decrease B/M GAIN. 2. Increase Dynamic Range.

Adjustments for... Increase Size of Area of Interest

Do the Following... 1. Use M-Mode ZOOM.
