Implement pre or post-exam inspection
A good way to extend your ultrasound machine lifetime, and avoid expensive repair or maintenance costs, is to take a few seconds to inspect it prior to your exam. The most fragile part is certainly the transducer. Look for cracks or swellings on or near the lens. This membrane is made of piezoelectric crystals that emit ultrasonic waves. The waves are then received back by the transducer and processed by the CPU, forming images. If the crystals get damaged, it results in poor image quality. Depending on the severity and the location of the damage, you can potentially end up with dark strips or degraded images. This is an issue for you and your team as diagnostics may be biased by bad images.

Protect your equipment during at all times

This is probably the most important part. If you want to maintain your ultrasound machine, you want it to be well protected during all the phases of its cycles.
