Acoustic Power Principle

18.1 Concerns with Bioeffects


Diagnostic ultrasound is recognized as being safe. In fact, there have been no reports of
injuries to patients caused by diagnostic ultrasound.
It cannot be stated categorically that ultrasound is 100% safe. Studies have revealed that
ultrasound with extremely high intensity is harmful to body tissues.
Diagnostic ultrasound technology has made a great leap forward during the last several
years. This rapid advance has generated concerns about the potential risk of bioeffects
when new applications or diagnostic technologies become available.

18.2 Prudent Use Statement


Although there are no confirmed biological effects on patients caused by exposures from
present diagnostic ultrasound instruments, the possibility exists that such biological effects
may be identified in the future. Thus ultrasound should be used in a prudent manner to
provide medical benefit to the patient. High exposure levels and long exposure times
should be avoided while acquiring necessary clinical information.

18.3 ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable)


It is required to practice ALARA when using ultrasound energy. Practicing ALARA ensures
that the total energy level is controlled below a low enough level at which bioeffects are
not generated while diagnostic information is being accumulated. The total energy is
controlled by output intensity and total radiation time. The output intensity necessary for
examinations differs depending on the patient and the clinical case.
Not all examinations can be performed with an extremely low level of acoustic energy.
Controlling the acoustic level at an extremely low level leads to low-quality images or
insufficient Doppler signals, adversely affecting the reliability of the diagnosis. However,
increasing the acoustic power more than necessary does not always contribute to an
increase in quality of information required for diagnosis, rather increasing the risk of
generating bioeffects.
Users must take responsibility for the safety of patients and utilize ultrasound deliberately.
Deliberate use of ultrasound means that output power of ultrasound must be selected
based on ALARA.

18.4 Parameters Affecting Acoustic Power


Acoustic Power is affected by transmission conditions (focus, drive frequency, voltage
applied to piezoelectric elements, etc.), scan conditions, and settings of the control panel,
and preset menu.

18.5 Acoustic Power Setting


Turn the [ACOUSTIC POWER] to adjust the acoustic power, whose value is displayed in
the Parameter area on the top part of the screen. To decrease acoustic power, turn the
knob counterclockwise and to increase acoustic power, turn the knob clockwise.
Acoustic power can be set in the range from 0 to 7, where 0 represents minimum acoustic

18-1

Acoustic Power Principle


power and 7 represents maximum acoustic power.
When the image is frozen, the acoustic power cannot be adjusted.

18.6 Imaging functions that change acoustic output power


Changes of imaging mode and adjustments to controls also affect the acoustic output
power. Specific information is provided in the following table.
Operation

Effect on the acoustic output power

Transducer change

The maximum acoustic output power of each transducer is optimized to


produce the best image quality within FDA guidelines. Thus, the
acoustic output power will change as the operator changes the active
transducer.

Imaging Mode change

Since B and M modes use difference default imaging parameters,


changing the mode will change the acoustic output power of the
system. No changes occur when switching from B to B/B, since the
basic imaging parameters remain the same. In most cases, the
acoustic output power for M-mode is larger than in B-mode, however, it
depends in the specific presets for B and M-mode.

Field of view(sector
Angle or scan Width)

Change the sector angle or scan width may result in change to the
frame rate, and thus change the acoustic output power.

Image depth change

Changing the image depth changes the PRF, and thus changes the
acoustic output power.

Number
Zones

Since the number of focal zones influences the frame rate and the
actual position of the focal zones, changing the number of focal zones
changes the acoustic output power.

of

Focal

Focus position

The transmit focus location change will cause the acoustic output
power change, even though the transmitting electrical energy level and
the aperture remains the same. In most cases, the acoustic output
power will increase if the focal point is moved closer to the transducer.

Freeze

Active the freeze function stops the electrical energy transmit part of
the system, thus disabling the system from generating ultrasound
wave.

Transmit power

The transmit power level change will change the electrical output of the
system to the transducer, and thus change the acoustic output power.

Frequency change

Changing the operating frequency changes the focal characteristics of


the acoustic waves, thus changes the acoustic output power.

Line density

Changing the number of acoustic lines generated (line density) affects


the acoustic output power.

Preset

Since the system and user presets contain all of the above imaging
parameters, changing the preset will change the acoustic output power.

Reset or Power Off/On

Resetting or powering the system on or off causes the system to return


to the default status thus may change the acoustic output power.

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones
and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be
predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF
transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in
the location in which DP-3300 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, DP-3300
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional
measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating DP-3300.
Over the frequency ranges 150kHz to 80MHz, field strengths should be less than 1V/m.

For transmitters at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distanced in
meters (m) can be determined using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P
is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter
manufacturer.
If DP-3300 image distortion occurs, it may be necessary to position DP-3300 further from sources of
conducted RF noise or to install external power source filter to minimize RF noise to an acceptable level.
Note
At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
Note
These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
