Reported risk: If a user-generated preset for an 18L6 transducer created on a 1.0 ultrasound system is used with a 2.0 ultrasound system, the 2.0 ultrasound system will display underestimated measurement results when using an 18L6 transducer and viewing in the Dual format visualization function, which may lead to misdiagnosis of a patient's condition or influence patient management decisions in a negative way.
