It’s important to use consistent terminology to describe the basic manipulations of the #ultrasound transducer. Particularly helps when guiding learners to acquire optimal images (echo labs may use a slightly different terminology). #POCUS #FOAMed #Nephpearls Slide - Motion in the long axis of the probe across the body with a consistent angle of insonation at 90° to the target. Sweep - Motion in the short axis of the probe across the body with a consistent angle of insonation at 90° to the target. Rock - Motion in the long axis of the probe along a fixed point on the body while changing the angle of insonation away from 90°. Fan - Motion in the short axis of the probe along a fixed point on the body while changing the angle of insonation away from 90°. Compression - Pressure on the probe into the body, compression of the body by applying force on the probe toward the patient’s body. Rotation - Movement around the compression axis in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.
