## Indications for use
The Siemens ACUSON X 7 00 TM ultrasound imaging system is intended for the following applications: Cardiac (Adult, Pediatric), Transesphageal (Cardiac), Intracardiac, Cerebrovascular, Peripheral Vessel, Abdominal, Renal, Fetal, Abdominal, Intra-operative, Pediatric, Small Organ, Neonatal Cepahalic, Adult Cephalic, Orthopedics, Musculo-skeletal Conventional, Musculo-skeletal Superficial, Pelvic, Obstetrical, Gynecological and Urological applications. The system also provides for the measurement of anatomical structures and for analysis packages that provide information that is used for clinical diagnosis purposes. The Arterial Health Package (AHP) software provides the physician with the capability to measure Intima Media Thickness and the option to reference normative tables that have been validated and published in peer-reviewed studies. The information is intended to provide the physician with an easily understood tool for communicating with patients regarding state of their cardiovascular system. This feature should be utilized according to the "ASE Consensus Statement; Use of Carotid Ultrasound to Identify Subclinical Vascular Disease and Evaluate Cardiovascular Disease Risk: A Consensus Statement from the American Association of Echocardiography; Carotid Intima-Media Thickness Task Force, Endorsed by the Society for Vascular Imaging". The Acuson Acunav Ultrsound Catheter is intended for intra-cardiac and intra-luminal visualization of cardiac and great vessel anatomy and physiology, as well as visualization of other devices in the heart of adult and pediatric patients.
