1General Device Description
The DGH 8000 is a diagnostic ultrasound device used by professionals in the
ophthalmic field to produce cross-sectional images of the eye and orbit. The probe is
comprised of a 12 MHz, single element transducer that is mechanically oscillated to
perform a 60-degree sector scan of the eye. The probe hand piece contains the
electronics used to pulse the transducer as well as to measure, filter and amplify the
resulting echoes from intraocular and orbital tissue. The probe is powered and controlled
via a USB 2.0 cable, which must be connected to a PC or Laptop running the Scanmate
software. The Scanmate software interprets the digital signals transmitted by the probe
and displays a “Brightness Scan” that shows the relative magnitude of the echo spikes
received by the transducer. The software allows the user to adjust the scan rate of the
probe (12 or 15 MHz) as well as the gain, contrast, intensity, and depth of the displayed
image. Once the exam is complete, the application allows the user to save video(s),
image(s) or create a report to document the results.

5Prescription Device Statement
6Operator Qualifications
This DGH 8000 is intended to be used by trained medical professionals. The medical
professional operating the DGH 8000 must have a general knowledge of the use of
ultrasonic imaging devices and imaging protocols.
7Use of Ultrasound in Ophthalmic Devices
Ultrasound offers a non-invasive method to examine the interior of solid objects.
Ultrasonic pulses consist of sound waves of a frequency level too high to be heard by
the human ear. When a sound impulse strikes an interface, some sound is reflected, and
some sound is transmitted. Because some sound will pass through the surface and be
reflected by the next surface, complex structures can be examined with ultrasound.
When ultrasound penetrates an object with several interfaces, the reflected ultrasound
can be observed on a display as a “Brightness Scan” that shows the relative position and
magnitude of the echo spikes received by the transducer.
Note: Ultrasound cannot travel through air because air is not dense enough for the high
frequency waves to propagate. Ultrasonic measurements must therefore be
performed by direct contact or through a denser medium such as coupling gel or
water.
! WARNING
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna
cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to
any part of the device, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise,
degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.
! CAUTION
The DGH 8000 is a prescription device and is only to be used by, or under the
supervision of, a licensed physician.

8Ultrasonic Exposure and Intensities
8.1 Tissue Exposure to Ultrasound Energy
The ultrasound energy emitted by the DGH 8000 is low intensity and will have no
adverse effects on the patient and/or operator. However, the operator is still cautioned to
perform examinations using the principle of ALARA (As Low As Reasonably
Achievable). All examinations should be done so that the patient receives as little
ultrasound radiation as possible. Do not hold the probe against the eye or other tissue
with the system activated except when performing an exam. Do not perform
unnecessary exams.
8.2 Ultrasonic Intensities
See Appendix B of this manual for acoustic measurements.
