1. Introduction

1.1 Features

L34 Probe is a linear array electronic scanning type probe.

The acoustic output of these probes when connected to the ultrasound

diagnostic scanner was measured according to the IEC60601-2-37

standard. The table of measured acoustic output data is contained

in the operational manual of each ultrasound diagnostic scanner.

This probe is categorized in class Ⅱa according to Directive

93/42/EEC.

According to IEC 60601-1, L34 Probe is classified as type BF.

1.2 Principles of operation

This probe and the ultrasound diagnostic scanner enable image

diagnosis using ultrasonic waves. This system operates under the

principles described below.

1) When an electric pulse signal is applied from the transmitter

to the transducer of the probe, the transducer converts electric

signals into mechanical vibration energy for emitting

pulse-shaped ultrasonic waves into the body part, liquid or

other medium contacting the transducer.

2) The emitted ultrasonic waves are reflected by boundaries with

different acoustic characteristics (acoustic impedance)

within the body.

3) The transducer is also used to receive reflected ultrasonic

waves. The transducer vibrates mechanically due to the received

ultrasonic waves and converts mechanical vibrations into

electric energy. Electric signals are converted to shades of

brightness by brightness modulation to obtain an image.

1.3 Intended Use

L34 Probe is designed for observation and diagnosis mainly of the

following regions by connecting with the HITACHI ultrasound

diagnostic scanner.

Small organ

Peripheral Vessel

Pediatric

Abdominal

Biopsy (with coupler attachment)

1.5 Option

1.5.1 Coupler attachment EZU-PA3C1 (Option)

By attaching the coupler attachment EZU-PA3C1, detecting of the

blood flow in the shallow blood vessel is possible, by keeping

a suitable angle. The optional coupler attachment EZU-PA3C1

components are as follows:

Component Model Note

1 Coupler attachment EZU-PA3C1 2 pieces

2 Instruction manual - 1 copy

1.5.2 Coupler attachment EZU-PA3C1H (Option)

By attaching the coupler attachment EZU-PA3C1H, additionally to

the blood flow detection a biopsy through the needle guide is

possible.

The optional coupler attachment EZU-PA3C1H components are as

follows:

Component Part number Model Note

1 Coupler attachment - EZU-PA3C1H 2 pieces

2 Needle Guide * 7424250A - 2 pieces

3 Instruction manual - - 1 copy

* A 20-22 gauge biopsy needle is available inside the needle guide.

1.5.3 Coupler attachment EZU-PA3C2 (Option)

By attaching the coupler attachment EZU-PA3C2, the images for

shallow parts by shifting of a focal zone to the parts are

improved.

The optional coupler attachment EZU-PA3C2 components are as

follows:

Component Model Note

1 Coupler attachment EZU-PA3C2 2 pieces

2 Immobilizing band - 2 pieces

3 Instruction manual - 1 copy

Please refer to the instruction manual of each option about the method

of handling, cleaning, disinfection and sterilizing them.

A biopsy should be performed only by a well-trained physician.

Use only the authorized coupler attachment for performing a biopsy.

Before performing a biopsy, display the needle echo in sterile water,

and confirm that the needle echo at each angle overlaps with the

correspondent needle guideline. For the confirmation procedure in

detail, refer to the instruction manual of EZU-PA3C1H.
