1) In case of bore a hole in the probe cover with a biopsy needle, the
probe should be sterilized after use.
2) A thin needle may be inserted as bent in the body. In such case,
if the needle is bent in the long-axis direction of the transducer,
its image will get out of the guide line. If it is bent in the direction
perpendicular to the long-axis, its image will disappear. In this
case, pull back the needle slightly, check the needle tip, and then
move the probe to follow the needle tip.
