On-board peripheral devices must be installed by an authorized Siemens representative or by a Siemens approved third party. Any use of other devices with the system will be at the user's risk and may void the system warranty.
Page 108 3 S y s t e m S e t u p During normal operation, the ultrasound system is designed to display ultrasound images without noise, artifacts, or distortion that cannot be attributed to physiological effects. Observe the peripheral equipment connections and patient environment shown in the following diagram to support the normal operation of the ultrasound system.

Caution: In breast applications of Virtual Touch IQ, shear wave imaging may have limitations in adequately visualizing regions of very high stiffness, for example, in certain breast cancers. Siemens recommends using the Quality image display setting to verify that the shear wave velocity and elasticity image represents adequate shear wave formation. Shear wave velocity and elasticity measurements should be made only in regions with high shear wave quality, represented in green when the Quality image display setting is selected.
