Abstract
This study was conducted to know the results of a routinely quality control of ultrasound that was done every month and it will later be used as a reference for the next quality control in diagnostic ultrasound. In this study, Multi-Purpose Multi-Tissue Ultrasound CIRS Phantom Model 040GSE was used to test the image quality on the Siemens Acuson 1000 ultrasound. The parameters that were used to evaluate the quality control of the Siemens Acuson 1000 ultrasound were uniformity, dead zone, depth of penetration, vertical distance, horizontal distance, axial resolution, and lateral resolution. The results that were obtained from this study showed that there were no artifacts on the ultrasound images. Five targets were seen in the dead zone area. Depth penetration of the images was 16 cm. Vertical and horizontal distances were 1 cm. Axial and lateral resolution of the images were 0.4 and 0, 3 cm. From the results that have been achieved, it can be concluded that the quality control test of the Siemens Acuson 1000 ultrasound at our department still in good performance and complied all parameters that was recommended
