 Needle Guide Alignment

WARNING:

X

Do not use the same needle used to verify alignment for an actual biopsy application. Always

use a new, sterilized needle for each biopsy procedure.

X

To assist in accurate projection of the needle, use a straight, new needle for each alignment

procedure.

The alignment of the needle guide displayed on the system is for the purpose of verifying whether the

needle and the needle guide are properly installed. This must be done prior to the biopsy examination.

If the needle fails to follow the accurate path while verifying the alignment of the needle guide, stop

using the product and contact Samsung Medison customer support department.

Reverberation or other tissue artifacts may produce false needle images on the screen. Ensure that

the needle path is along the guideline and that you are not using a false needle image to locate the

needle.

1. Attach the biopsy kit.

2. Set the system depth for the procedure to be performed and select the Biopsy menu.

3. Immerse the probe into the water bath, and insert the needle into the needle guide.

4. Conrm that the needle image is on the needle guideline. If it is, then the needle guide is

properly aligned.

5. If the needle image is out of the needle guideline, check the needle guide or the probe adapter.
