Description

iLab Ultrasound Imaging System; iLab 3.0 (Polaris 1.0) software. Used for ultrasound examinations of intravascular pathology.

Reason

Specific iLab Ultrasound Imaging Systems using newest 3.0 (Polaris 1.0) software change the pullback speed from the default setting of 0.5 mm/sec to 1.0 mm/sec, the Longview distance measurement may display an inaccurate value that is double the actual distance.
