disinfection procedures.
Cautions
Closely review the following cautions before using the Terason Ultrasound System for the
first time.
Caution: Do not use the Terason Ultrasound System during an MRI exam or
when using a defibrillator.
Terason Probes
Each probe model has indications for use (see “Indications For Use” in the Terason
Technical Manual) concerning specific applications.
Ultrasound System
Always position the ultrasound system on a stable surface where it cannot fall on the
patient.
Caution: Do not lift the ultrasound system by the power cable or probe. If either
disconnects, the ultrasound system could fall on the patient.
Allergies
Metals used in some of the decorative exterior plates may contain nickel. If persons using
the system are allergic to nickel, avoid handling the exterior decorative metal.
System Covers
Do not remove any system covers or cables. Only qualified Terason personnel should
service the Terason Ultrasound System.

Patient Environment
Liquids
The Terason probe, electronics envelope, and computer are not protected from spilled
liquids. The probe array is watertight up to the strain relief, as specified in “Pre-Cleaning”
in the Terason Technical Manual. If the computer is exposed to liquids or moisture,
purchase a keyboard drape. In addition, the Terason Ultrasound System electronics must
be draped if exposed to liquids or moisture.
Couplants
Use only couplants specifically designed for ultrasound examinations. Do not use mineral-
oil or vegetable-based couplants, which can damage probes.
Heat
Do not expose probes to direct heat such as strong sunlight or local heat sources. Heat ages
the crystal and causes loss of sensitivity.
Latex
Terason strongly recommends that health-care professionals identify their latex-sensitive
patients, and refer to the FDA’s March 29, 1991 Medical Alert on Latex products. Be
prepared to treat allergic reactions promptly.
Care
Ultrasound probes and your Terason Ultrasound System are fragile. Handle with care. If
the probe appears damaged, or misuse of the electronics envelope causes a malfunction,
please return the equipment to Terason for service or replacement.
Warning: Do not drop the ultrasound probe! If you accidentally drop the
probe, check it carefully for damage. Perform a sample scan to
make sure it operates correctly. If not, contact Terason for service
or replacement.
Immersion
Do not immerse the probe connector. If the cable connector is immersed, do not plug the
connector into the system. Rinse the connector under running water and dry it thoroughly.
If necessary, contact Terason for service.
Warning: The Terason Ultrasound System is not approved for use with HF
surgical equipment. Use of the Terason Ultrasound System in HF
surgical procedures could result in failure of the electrical
isolation, resulting in injury or death.

Safety Standards
According to the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) Official
Statement of the Clinical Safety of Diagnostic Ultrasound (March 1993):
Diagnostic ultrasound has been in use since the late 1950s. Given its known benefits
and recognized efficacy for medical diagnosis, including use during human
pregnancy, the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine herein addresses the
clinical safety of such use: No confirmed biological effects on patients or instrument
operators caused by exposure at intensities typical of present diagnostic ultrasound
instruments have ever been reported. Although the possibility exists that such
biological effects may be identified in the future, current data indicate that the benefits
to patients of the prudent use of diagnostic ultrasound outweigh the risks, if any, that
may be present.
This section addresses the following topics:
• Ultrasound Safety, see page 55
• Electrical Safety, see page 55
• Surface Heating of Invasive Probes, see page 55
Ultrasound Safety
The following is a Prudent Use Statement regarding the use of ultrasound:
Use diagnostic ultrasound only when there is a good medical reason. Also, the Terason
Ultrasound System does not provide explicit control of acoustic power output.
Therefore, to minimize the exposure to ultrasound energy, limit the duration of
ultrasound examinations.
Electrical Safety
The Terason Ultrasound System conforms to the UL 60601-1 electrical safety standard.
Each probe is insulated from the patient to minimize patient exposure in the presence of a
system fault or a fault in other patient-connected equipment. The type of protection
against electric shock is Class I. The degree of protection is Type BF, per safety standard
IEC 60601-1.
To maintain compliance with electrical safety and emissions standards, the Terason
Ultrasound System must be used only with the supplied Medical Grade Power Adapters.
The peak acoustic power is constrained by the maximum voltage applied to the probe-
array elements. In hardware, peak power is monitored by a watchdog device that measures
instantaneous power and compares it to two thresholds. The first threshold is a non-
programmable four-watt limit. The second threshold is a programmable limit that Terason
has set in accordance with IEC 60601-2-37 and AIUM Nema UD2 and UD3 (1998 and
2004).
Caution:Do not use the Terason Ultrasound System during an MRI exam or when
using a defibrillator.
Note: The Terason Ultrasound System is not approved for ophthalmic use or for any use
that causes the acoustic beam to pass through the eye.

Warning: Ultrasound procedures should be used for valid reasons, for the
shortest period of time, and at the lowest mechanical/thermal
index setting necessary to produce clinically acceptable images.
The ultrasound system incorporates an output display of
Mechanical and Thermal Indices to allow you to monitor, and to
limit, the amount of ultrasound energy that is transferred to the
patient.
Note: For systems distributed in the United States of America,
refer to the Medical Ultrasound Safety ultrasound education
program brochure produced by the AIUM.
ratio of the current power level from the probe to the reference power level that would
cause a 1ºC steady-state temperature rise in bone located at the beam focus.
• Mode type: Calculated for all operations, in both scanned and non-scanned modes.
• Tissue type and location: In scanned modes, the model for soft tissue at the surface is
also used to calculate the maximum possible heating of bone at the beam focus. For
non-scanned modes, possible heating of bone near the beam focus is considered
directly.
• Acoustic parameters: For scanned modes, the time-average intensity at the probe
surface is closely related to estimated heating effects. For unscanned modes, the
maximum product along the beam axis of both derated power and intensity is the basis
for calculating possible bone heating. Total heating effects for scanned and unscanned
modes are compiled separately, and the larger value is reported as TIB.
All modes Include either Adult Cephalic or MI, TIS, TIB, TIC
Neonatal Cephalic
1. The TIC index can be chosen and displayed even when the connected probe is
not intended for cephalic applications.
Only certain probes used with the Terason Ultrasound System are intended for transcranial
examinations (Neo-natal Cephalic uses). If the probe used does not support transcranial
exams, the index display does not include TIC.
Index Display
When any mode is active, a display shows the mechanical index and one thermal index
relevant to the probe in use. The index information appears at the top of the column of text
to the right of the scan image. The indices are TIS (soft tissue), TIB (bone), and TIC
(cranial).
The probe in use may display either the TIS, the TIB, or the TIC.
You can select a different thermal index to display.
To select a thermal index:
1. Click Setup.
2. Click the Display tab.
3. In the TI Selection section, click the desired thermal index.
4. Click OK.
If the value of the selected index is greater than 0.4, the value displays. If the value is
less than 0.4, “<0.4” displays.
For all probes, real-time values are displayed to allow monitoring and control. The
displayed indexes may show the following values (shown along with the corresponding
labels, where x indicates the actual calculated index value):
Acoustic Index Parameters
In all operating modes with the Terason Ultrasound System, control of acoustic exposure
is available indirectly. For a description of the indirect effects that certain control
adjustments may have on displayed index values, consult the “Working With Scan
Modes” chapter in the User Guide for your system.

Accuracy Measures
The following general assumptions can be made about the accuracy of any ultrasound
system:
• Velocity of sound uncertainty = 5%
• Tissue shape is modeled as an ellipse or an ellipsoid
• Caliper placement accuracy is one pixel (operator dependent)
• Measurement accuracy is based on the root-mean-square combination of all
independent sources of error
• RMS errors are due to velocity of sound uncertainty, pixel error, and typical probe
geometry
Distance Accuracy
Distance accuracy measures are as follows:
Formula:
2
D = x1 + x2 2 + y1 + y2
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the coordinates of the end points.
Range: 0-20 cm
Accuracy: For a 20 cm measurement, a 1 pixel error is 0.2 mm.
RMS errors:
• For D = 10mm, accuracy = 9%
• For D = 20mm, accuracy = 6%
• For D > 50mm, accuracy = 5%
Area
Area accuracy measures are as follows:
Assumptions: Circular cross section, length of axes: 2a, 2b
Formula: K=ab
Range: 0-300 cm2
Accuracy: Determined by two independent distance measurements. The derivation of a
particular tissue shape from the circular model cannot be quantified.
RMS errors: For A=3.1 cm2, accuracy=4%
Circumference
Circumference accuracy measures are as follows:
Assumptions: Elliptical cross section, length of axes: 2a, 2b
2 + b2
Formula: C = 2 a-------------------
-
2
Range: 0-60 cm
Accuracy: Determined by two independent distance measurements
RMS errors: For C=6.3 cm, accuracy=6%
Volume
Volume accuracy measures are as follows:
Assumptions: Cylinder, length of axes: 2a, 2b, 2c (height)
Formula: V = 4/3(abc)
Range: 0-3000 ml
Accuracy: Determined by three independent distance measurements. The deviation of a
particular shape from the ellipsoid cannot be quantified.
RMS errors: For V=16 ml, accuracy=8%
Reference information for the above accuracy measures was obtained from the following
source:
Standard Mathematical Tables, 24th Edition, (Cleveland: CRC Press, 1976), 12, 17.
