MN1-6264 Rev.2 Introduction This is the instruction manual for CC41R1 probe. The probe is available by connecting to Hitachi's ultrasound diagnostic instrument and can be used as a transrectal probe for observation of prostate and surrounding organs or used as a vaginal probe for observation of uterus and surrounding organs. It can also be used for ultrasound-guided puncture under the condition that the optional puncture adapter is attached to it.

MN1-6264 Rev.2 3. Preparations before use This chapter describes preparations needed to use the probe safely. Please prepare the probe prior to each use by following the instructions below. 3-1. Visual check Visually check the ultrasonic radiation part, insertion portion, handle, cable, and connector. If any holes, indentations, abrasion, cracks, deformation, looseness, discoloration, or other abnormalities are found, do not use the probe.
MN1-6264 Rev.2 3-4. Visual check for the sterile puncture adapter (EZU-PA5V) Visually inspect the envelope of the sterile puncture adapter for any break, deformation, crack, or denaturalization. If you find any damage, do not use them and contact a service support immediately.
MN1-6264 Rev.2 4. Operation This chapter describes the operation of the probe, the image direction, and how to attach the sterile puncture adapter, the puncture guide fixture, magnetic position sensor and Magnetic Position Sensor Attachment. 4-1. Operation Mount a probe cover on the probe and insert the probe into the body cavity. An image of the region of interest is displayed on the monitor of the ultrasound diagnostic instrument.
Mount the probe cover on the insertion portion. If the probe cover is not mounted, residual pathogens on the probe could infect the patient. Use Hitachi-approved probe covers only. Use of non biocompatible probe covers can cause an adverse reaction.
(4) Display the puncture guideline before inserting the needle into the puncture adapter. Refer to the section for the guideline. The needle insertion direction is shown in Figure 6. EZU-PA5V CC41R1 Probe Cover Figure 5 How to attach Sterile Puncture Adapter Biopsy needle is not...

MN1-6264 Rev.2 Warning Mount a probe cover on the insertion portion. If a probe cover is not mounted, residual pathogens on the probe could infect the patient. Use only biocompatible probe covers. Use of non biocompatible probe covers can cause an adverse reaction. Use only sterile probe covers.
MN1-6264 Rev.2 4-5. Display of Puncture Guideline The puncture guideline can be displayed by dot marks. Please refer to the documentation supplied with the ultrasound diagnostic instrument for how to display the puncture guideline on the image. Guideline Figure 7 Puncture Guideline Warning During puncture operation, display an appropriate puncture guideline on the monitor of the ultrasound diagnostic instrument.

MN1-6264 Rev.2 Use sterile physiological saline solution as the acoustic medium. Non sterile acoustic medium can cause infection to the patient. Use a needle which is applicable to the puncture adapter. Use of the needle not applicable to the puncture adapter can result in puncture at unintended parts and injury to the patient.
MN1-6264 Rev.2 4-6. How to attach/release the magnetic position sensor and the magnetic position sensor attachment This section provides how to attach the magnetic position sensor and the magnetic position sensor attachment to the probe. 4-6-1. How to attach the magnetic position sensor and the magnetic position sensor attachment (1) Confirm that the magnetic position sensor attachment is sterilized or disinfected.
MN1-6264 Rev.2 4-6-2. How to release the magnetic position sensor and the magnetic position sensor attachment (1) Release the magnetic position sensor attachment from the probe as shown in Figure 10. (2) Release the magnetic position sensor from the magnetic position sensor attachment as shown in Figure 11.
