This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's investigation and correction to h4.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.Based on the results of the investigation, the root cause of the no image was the ultrasonic image could not be rendered normally because the ultrasonic medium inside the sheath leaked out due to the occurrence of a hole in the sheath at the tip.The ultrasonic wave could not be transmitted normally.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
