⛓️💥The, Hidden, Weak Link in Ultrasound Probes When we think about ultrasound probe failures, the acoustic array often takes center stage. But right behind it—often overlooked—is the wiring harness and cable …
Inside Outlooks: What’s really going on inside your ultrasound probe
When we think about ultrasound probes, we often focus on the parts we can see and touch—the lens, the cable, the connector. But, what about the components hidden inside the …
Test Your Ultrasound IQ
Each week, our team provides tech support to dozens of Innovatus clients. We thought that we’d share one scenario that provides a strong foundation of troubleshooting common ultrasound issues. Let’s …
Seeing is Believing
Whether it’s an external pacemaker, anesthetic vaporizer, ultrasound probe, MRI coil, or other specialized device, how do YOU choose which provider will repair your device today? What’s drives your decision? …
How to perform TEE probe leakage testing
TEE probe leakage testing has been around for about 30 years. Surprisingly, it’s something that, currently, is still misunderstood by many biomeds, imaging service engineers, even those routinely performing the …
Reduce TEE Probe Failures through SafeTEE
When it comes to imaging devices, little things go a long way…and not always in the right direction. A little slip of the hands could cause significant trauma to your TEE …
Taking a closer look: Micro-damage
It can be frustrating to HTM teams, and end-users, to learn that their ultrasound probe, that was only sent in to address a damaged strain relief, may require a more …
TEE Probe Preventive Maintenance
TEE probes are exposed to significant wear as part of everyday normal use. Significant savings add-up with a TEE probe preventive maintenance program. Last month, we provided an overview of …
TEE Probe 101
Trans-esophageal echo-cardiology (TEE) probes. Merely uttering those words can sound intimidating. Even imaging service engineers, who’ve supported diagnostic ultrasound for years, may have never truly felt comfortable handling these devices. …
Troubleshooting Mechanical 3D Ultrasound Probes
Despite advancements in matrix array technology, mechanical 3D probes still remain very popular for abdominal and Ob-Gyn applications. Given their design, there are modes of failure specific to mechanical 3D …
