Cleaning Your Affordable GE Ultrasound Probes
Ultrasound probes, better known as transducers, are the most integral part of an ultrasound machine. A transducer converts energy into sound waves that are above the human audible range and then receives the echo that bounces back once the sound waves have hit an object. The machine then converts the sound waves back into energy which are displayed on a monitor. They come in a multitude of shapes and sizes to capture different parts of the body in images.
At National Ultrasound we deal in new, used, reconditioned, and repaired Philips, ATL & Agilent (HP), Siemens-Acuson, Diasonic, Medison, Toshiba, Aloka, Diasonic, and GE ultrasound probes. They are affordable, and provide a perfect solution to replacing your old ones. We specialize in cardiac phased array, small parts and vascular linear array, abdominal and OB curved linear array, and endocavitary probes. With such a large selection and broad specialization, whatever transducer you need can be found at National Ultrasound.
General Electric recommends that all transducers/probes be cared for and cleaned properly according to the user's manual. This will ensure a long life for the probe, as well as prevent severe lens damage and image quality degradation. They also recommend that before cleaning GE ultrasound probes, you disconnect the probe from the console and scrub with a soft brush, lathered in a nonabrasive soap and water solution. This will ultimately maximize the lifespan of your transducer.
