Measurement Accuracy
Tables
The Clarius Ultrasound Scanner can be used to make measurements
on ultrasound images. These measurements can then be used with
other clinical data to make a diagnosis.
Never make a diagnosis based solely on measurements. When
quantifying data, consider other factors. The accuracy of each
measurement is highly dependent on image quality, which in turn is
highly dependent on system design, operator scanning technique,
familiarity with system controls, and patient echogenicity.
You are responsible for image quality and diagnosis. Ensure that the
data used for inspection and diagnosis is sufficient, both spatially and
temporally, for the measurement method.
Inaccurate measurements or misinterpretation of results taken from
an exam may lead to misdiagnosis.
