[0063] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressing sheet will not block the transmission path of the ultrasonic wave.

[0064] Directions:

[0065] When used in scenarios such as continuous monitoring of cardiac function, prenatal testing of pregnant women, early detection and tracking of tumors, gynecological and urological examinations, etc., medical personnel can press the locking switch by hand to push out part of the cover body, and then release the locking switch so that the barb on the locking switch abuts between two adjacent teeth through the action of the torsion spring, and the cover body is axially locked and fixed. Then, the packaging bag containing the gel patch is opened, and the gel patch is taken out. Then, the side of the gel patch facing away from the gel surface is covered on the upper end of the probe. Then, the patch is fine-tuned by hand to eliminate the wrinkles of the gel patch and make it flat, and the four corners of the gel patch are aligned with the four pressing pieces. Then, the cover body is pushed down by hand, and the barb can automatically cooperate with the teeth to clamp and fix the gel patch to obtain the best sound wave conduction effect.

[0066] The medical staff then holds the handle to fit the gel patch covering the probe to the skin area corresponding to the organ to be examined, and then moves the ultrasound probe to obtain the required image. After the scan is completed, the image or video data is saved for subsequent analysis and diagnosis.

[0067] After the ultrasound scan, turn off the device, clean the patient's skin, remove the remaining gel, then press the locking switch, push out the cover, release the locking switch, and gently remove the gel patch to prevent the gel from adhering to the ultrasound probe and patch holder. Then disinfect and store the ultrasound probe. If it needs to be used frequently, replace it with a new gel patch after disinfection and use it again.

[0068] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
