Controls
The SONOS biopsy controls and displays help direct the operation of the biopsy 
needle. 
CAUTION During biopsy operations, it is important that you activate onscreen biopsy guide-
lines and carefully watch the image during needle insertion, to verify the needle 
path. 
To use the biopsy controls, you need a biopsy-enabled transducer. The biopsy 
support controls are located on the right touch panel by touching BMode and 
Secondary Controls:
A touch control with three options lets you select the following: 
• Biopsy Off—Disables the biopsy controls.
• Biopsy Gun—Displays a single dotted line representing the ideal needle 
path. (See page 7-40.)
• Biopsy Needle—Displays diverging dotted lines representing the expected 
path of the needle during insertion. (See page 7-41.)
