5504378 Revision 3 3-1
Accuracies

3.1 Introduction
The possible accuracy of geometric, flow speed or other measurements with this ultrasound
system is a result of various parameters that shall be equally considered. The used images
shall be optimized and scaled to provide the best view of the examined structures. To ensure
this, the correct choice of the ultrasound probe and imaging mode for a certain application
plays an essential role.
It is also important to be aware of increased inaccuracies caused by the ultrasound beam
travelling through inhomogeneous human tissue with layers of various sound speeds.
Therefore differences between operators shall be minimized by standardization of
measurement procedures.

Voluson™ E6 BT15 / Voluson™ E8 BT15 Advanced Acoustic Output References


3-2 5504378 Revision 3
Accuracies

3.2 Geometric measurements


To obtain good results with distances, areas and volumes the examined structure shall be
placed in the center of the image and zoomed as much as possible. Geometric
measurements, particularly in 3D data, shall only be done in regions where the structures are
clearly resolved. Otherwise the specified accuracy can drop significantly.
Considering a sound speed of 1540 m/s (average for human tissue), following inaccuracies
shall be taken into account for distances >33 mm:

Measurement Accuracy

Distance +/- 3 %

Area +/- 6 %

Circumference +/- 3 %

Volume +/- 9 %

For distances <= 33 mm an absolute inaccuracy <=1 mm can apply.

Note Area and volume accuracies are derived from the values for distance (only distances > 33 mm
are assumed):

• Inaccuracy for areas: <= +/- 6% (Distance 1 x Distance 2)

• Inaccuracy for volumes: <= +/- 9% (Distance 1 x Distance 2 x Distance 3)

In modes where additional information is overlaid to the B-mode (e.g. CFM, PD, Elasto), the
caliper measurements shall be taken with reference to the B-mode image to meet the stated
accuracy.

Accuracies

3.3 Flow speed measurements


Operating mode Max. rel. deviation

CW ≤ ±6%

PW ≤ ±8%

These values can be obtained in the full range provided that a good adjustment of the
ultrasound image according to the Basic User Manual has been done, including a proper angle
correction. Furthermore it shall be considered that these uncertainties are valid for a sound
speed of 1540m/s (average of soft tissue). In heterogeneous tissue, particularly with high fat
content, an additional error of about 5% can occur and shall be taken into account (for more
explicit values respective literature should be studied).

3.5 Accuracies of acoustic parameters


The parameters MI, and the thermal indices TIs, TIb and TIc are calculated by the ultrasound
system depending on the connected probe and the chosen application setting. For their
interpretation and further explanations please refer to the Basic User Manual of the console.
The mechanical index MI and the thermal indices TIs, TIb and TIc are displayed with at least 1
decimal place, starting from 0.1. From a value of 0.4 the deviation from measurements is less
than ±25% for MI and less than ±50% for TIs, TIb and TIc.
