Ultrasound Machine | A basic introduction to a sonographer's world

- ULTRASOUND MACHINE | SONOGRAPHER | KNOBOLOGY
Take a quick glimpse into the world of sonography/ ultrasound, where I show you the buttons and knobs that I use in my job on the daily. Many people think ultrasound technologists have it easy, however, we are the ones who have to manipulate the probe and machine to get a good quality image for the radiologist or doctor. Sonographers know how to handle these machines, all different types, from GE, to Canon, Philips, Acuson, Mindray, and more. We also have to know what button does what, which probe to use in different situations, and which settings to use for different exams. I hope this excites you to look further into ultrasound. I hope you realize we do so much more than just push buttons. And I hope you learn something new today! Don't hesitate to ask any other questions if you need further explanation. There are MANY ultrasound knobology UA-cam videos out there that will go further into detail. I just wanted to show you some buttons that I personally use everyday. Every technologist, workplace, and protocol is different. Listen to whoever is teaching you and build up your ultrasound knowledge and skills! Happy scanning!

Thank you for this video. I have worked on the Siemens S3000 for the past 9 years and just transfered to our vascular lab where they have the GE. They are two very different machines and it has been a struggle for me. Your knobology explanation has been extremely helpful! I appreciate you taking the time to go over it.
-Sonographer for 22 years ❤
Thank you so much for watching, supporting, and commenting!!! I appreciate you and thank you for all that you do!
Thank you so much for making this. I’m starting my Diagnostic Medical Sonography schooling in October. I am so excited!!
Of course it’s my absolute pleasure. I’m so happy you enjoyed it!!! Good luck and don’t give up! ❤️
This is perfect! Breaks down control panel of the machine. I’ve been searching for books to find out but your video helps so much. Thank you.
thank you SO much! I appreciate you!
Ya girl went to sleep at 8:30pm EST and I can't believe I missed this! 😭😱 thank you soooo much for sharing this with us!!! So informative, and the way you explain it is to the point and straightforward, which I appreciate a lot ❤❤❤
Giiirrrllll I wanna sleep early like that! Hahah thanks for watching even on your own time, means soooo so much to me!! 😭😭😭 I try not to make things complicated as the field already is super confusing, lol, but I’m glad to know you can understand it! That’s my main goal hehe. 🥺🥺💕
Omg! I just took a test on two GE machines today in class. I’m excited that I can recognize the machine and the functions!
oh my gosh, really! haha yay! that's exciting! and yesssss good job!!
Can’t wait !! You inspired me to pursue Ultrasound! 💜
Yeslie, I’m honored! Crush your goals and never give up! ✨
I'm glad I saw this. I'm use to using Phillips Epic's and I've been thinking about becoming a traveler so I'm sure I'll get GE and others along the way. Back at my school and clinical sites had some GEs and awful acuson's but that was around 2010. Thank you for all your videos.
Thank you for watching and supporting!! Yes GEs are very common! Good luck :)
You are soo detail and I like that, even thou there is still much to cover, you gave us the basic
thank you!!
Can't wait!! I wanna learn everything I can about the machine! 😊👏🏽
Yayyy! Hope you learn a lil something from this video heheh 🥰❤️
@@lolgeselle Thank you Thank you for this great video.
@@drei000 of course!! 🥰
I can teach you.
@@twinomujuniedson8320I'm ready to learn...am done with my certificate
Just got this machine today, and was looking for a good explanation on the GE E9 machines. Thanks for re-enforcing some of the key important knobs commonly used on the machine.
Ahh yay!!! I love the GE!! I hope you like it! 🥲
Anyone else get chills when Geselle showed the picture of the baby's spine?! So amazing. Thank you Geselle for your videos! I'm starting my DMS schooling this fall!
AWW, Callie you're so sweet!! Congrats on getting into your program, I hope you share your experiences with us!
i was toying with the idea of making an open-source ultrasound console so you only have to buy the probes. This was extremely helpful
ooooo this would be interesting !!
I don't think is possible. Too much regulations and liability with medical equipment.
also -each probe is very different and would need to be tuned and validated.
but try. why not.
Omg. The nostalgia for school. We had those machines when i went to school. And when i and all my classmates were scanning in our labs for the first week of school, we were so nervous and confused. I thought i was gonna break something or mess up the settings. I had one classmate who would have a bad habit of taking the probe off the patient to type on the machine and measure. 😂 my teacher stood there and held his hand with the probe on the patient for 2 whole labs so he can never forget to not remove the probe unless he absolutely had to.
Lol, it's always nerve wrecking learning on a new machine!! HAHA, I love teachers like that. Sometimes you gotta learn the hard way.
AHHH SO EXCITED FOR ANOTHER VIDEO👏🏻👏🏻
SO HAPPY THAT YOURE HERE ❤️❤️❤️
can’t wait! ready for it to premiere already❤️
Soo excited for you🥰😘
@@lolgeselle Thanks for this great video.
@@drei000 appreciate you watching! 🥰
I have learned a lot of things in this video and I feel like starting to operate US machine now
that's awesome! thanks for watching!
Reminder set 😄 I love these educational videos!!
Yay makes me happy you look forward to it 🥲🥲🥲
this was such a good video ! thank you geselle. it made the machine seem less scary lol.
Yay!!! I am so glad you enjoyed it, lol. I didn’t know if anyone would like it 😅😅😅 I sooo always appreciate your feedback! So thank you!!! 😍
I was intimidated by the machine when I first saw it at my school.. I even doubted if I am capable of this program lol
@@lolgeselle thank you 😊
Best video I have seen on Instrumentation...very helpful!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
That is SOOO kind of you to say! Thank you for watching 😇✨
THANKYOU so much for this!! I really needed a detailed explanation of the machine!
You are so welcome! THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
This is the best knobology video I’ve seen, current student here 😊
Aw, Camille that's so so nice of you to say! I appreciate you so much!! Let us know if you need anything
@@lolgeselle awe thank you so much, I still haven’t touched a machine yet but watching the sonographers at work (I’m currently an MA) it looks so complicated lol
hope you've gotten to scan more!
Wow! I knew there were lots of buttons but there's SO many functions! Kind of makes me nervous but this video was so clear and helpful. Thanks for this :D
There’s wayyy more things these bad boys can do! But those are just truly the basic basic stuffs! Haha thanks for watching I hope it excites you to scan 😍🥰
Wow the machine is intimidating now.My class and I start scanning for in person lab this coming week
it's okay, you'll understand it eventually ;) once you do, look back at the video and see how much you've learned!
Can I just go in lab already? Lol I've learned so much in this video and now I want to play with the machine 🧐🙃
Hehehe I can’t wait for you to go to lab and play! 🥰🥲
When i was in school, my teachers had us in lab the first day of school. And we had 4 labs a week. And every friday the 2mths before we started clinicals, they tested us on out knowledge of the machine. And the last 2 weeks of those 2 mths, we had to do a competency test for both labs. One competency was on the controls of the machine and physics and the other competency is us actually scanning anatomy (we had to check off on doing a complete abdominal ultrasound). They did this so that we were familiar with the basics of the machine before we started our clinicals. Let me tell you, it was frustrating at first because it was alot to take in. But i was glad, especially when i started my clinicals.
Great video by amazing Doctor ❤❤
I’m super excited 😊
This makes me so happy 😭❤️
I start my program in August and this was so helpful! Thank you 😊

This is an informative content dear and thank you for sharing it with us too.
Thank you for watching! ❤️
@@lolgeselle you are most welcome dear
@@Furtadofamily have an amazing week!
I never used the left/right invert button, but I heard when you work at the Mayo Clinic, they actually have the heart anatomically correct on the screen where the right heart is actually on the right and left heart on the left, but normally the majority of the other places will do left heart on the R side of the screen!
OoOoO that’s so interesting to know!! Thank you for sharing 🥰 happy heart awareness month! ❤️
This makes me soo happy. Starting my sonography program in April and have been a little worried about learning all the info specifically the machine itself. This video has really help me feel much more at ease. Thank you so much for giving us amazing content 💕
Awww Brittany!! Appreciate you watching! It definitely isn’t as scary as it looks! Once you learn it becomes fun, like a game heheh. Can’t wait to see you start your program ❤️😍😍👏🏽
Thank you very much for the video with kindness and respect
I appreciate you so much!
Omgg that’s a lot of buttons to learn😭 but very informative video!!
Hehe it’s a lot but definitely doable 😉😉😉 thanks for watching! ✨
Great video! I'm super excited to learn all the different functions and machines!
Thank you!!!🥰❤️ it’s gonna be so fun! ✨
Thank you so much Ma'am im taking a training now it really helps to me muwaahhh❤
Best of luck! You're awesome!
I am horrible at math. I am looking into this area of the medical field. But right now I am in my second semester of School for my RN. 2 semesters of school left to go!!! Yay!! But I want this just in case. But Physics is a nightmare for me.
It is ok! I am also horrible at math. But good luck on rn school! :) You got this!
Wonderful and useful explanation 👏👏👏 you gave us 🙂 . Thank you for sharing such a nice and valuable information 🙂
My pleasure 😊 I'm glad it was helpful!
Ahh I can’t wIt for this vid😍
It’s just a basic video but I hope it brings you insight! ✨
Alright! I just signed up for an info session with a school :)
Hey heyyyy that’s exciting ✨👏🏽
Very informative.. nice video..

Thanks for sharing your video my luvs, mhuaaahh # Nhors
Heheheheh thank you 🤍🤍🤍
Thank you so much i really appreciate this
thank you so much for watching
Thank you for this video, very informative. do you have a video about how to setup calc package for vascular studies? please share those videos too
Thank you for watching! I do not have a video like that but usually the machines have built in packages. Each company can contact their GE contact for direct help with this!
Very cool video
Hehehe thank you ❤️
Hello and thank you so much🥰
I have two questions:
1)For patient registration,we choose patient and then new patient?
2)What happens if we dont choose new patient and continue with the registration at the window that appears after choosing patient?
Thank you and I would really appreciate your answer please🥺🤍🥰
Hi! For patient registration you have to make sure you input all of the information and select register! If you don't it'll create an extra account. It takes some finessing but it doesn't create an issue. Hopefully your system is easy to fix/ transfer!
Very interesting. Turning knobs left and right... that I can do.
Lol, yes left and right, up and down. It’s fun! ✨
@@lolgeselle and that’s the extent of my capabilities.
@@Captain_bernoulli it’s a great thing to know tho hehe
Working as a ultrasound tech, is it a must to know all areas that falls under ultrasound or you can specialize
you must know a lot in what you specialize!
Your video is extremely helpful. Thank you and God bless!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
such a cool video!!
thank you so much!
Reminder is 0n
Yayyyy!!!❤️❤️❤️🥲🥲🥲
thank you! this was so helpful
thank you for watching!
Reversing the image is often used for cardiovascular studies.
oh that's cool, I didn't know that, thank you!
Thank you for this
Thank you for supporting friend! ✨
This is such a great video. I was wondering if you can tell me how to change the Thermal index in the machine.
thank you so much! I'm not sure about thermal index unfortunately.
This is literally the machine that we have
that is awesome !!
The Color flow shows you not only direction, but also Velocity speed.
power Doppler does not show Velocity.
Some machines have Directional Power Doppler that can show you direction of flow in PD.
PD is better for slower flow.
Awesome!! Thanks for all the tips Emanuil.
Is it common that the few that are selected often back out or don’t want to do it & it leaves a spot open? I’ve been wanting to do this for almost a year & they picked 8 students & I wasn’t one of them. She did say that if two students didn’t do it I could take their spot. I just don’t know what to feel right now.
It is very common. I was on the "alternate list" and I made it on after someone dropped out! So it definitely matters! It's a good sign. I know it's hard right now, but keep your head up. There are always second and third chances. DO things to help your situation, like volunteer, study, focus on the end goal. Stay PAWSitive and even ask the program director or committee what you can do to improve your chances next time. 8 students is not a lot. And we all know it's super competitive. But what matters is when we fall down, we get back up. And never lose sign of your WHY. Don't put yourself down too hard, 8 people is truly truly sooo small! You can do this if you really want it!
Tqq Mamm😍❤️🙏
thank you so much for watching.
And what are the preferred area to specialize in with deep interest as to good salary
they all have a pretty good salary! it depends on what you want to learn and do on the daily!
Can anyone tell me which buttons to push to measure and organ. Like hit measure and then what?
hit the measure button, move the calipers with the track ball, click the long buttons to the side of the track ball to measure and make sure you select the area you plan on measuring
hi just want to ask what to press if you want iscan? like other machine theres iscan name hehe. because your machind and my machine in my new company is the same so its my first time to used that kind of machine nextweek.
Hi! It's the button on the very bottom right corner. There's two circles. One with the dot in the middle.
thank you
Thanks 🙏
Thanks for watching!!! :)
