ultrasound which is also commonly known as a Sonogram. The definition of ultrasound is energy that is generated by sound waves of 20,000 or greater vibrations per second. Ultrasound is used in many different arrays. It is most often used in the medical field. Ultrasound uses sound waves that are too high to be heard by the human ear. A part of the ultrasound machine called the transducer is placed on the body part and sound waves are emitted from the transducer and reflected back from organs and tissues. When the wave is sent back to the transducer it puts it into the computer which then measures the length of time it took for the wave to leave and come back and this is what makes up the pictures.
Features of the Pocket divice
The quick look that may strengthen your clinical confidence, aids in speedy diagnosis, and deepens the patient connection.Enhance the physical exam by looking inside patients non-invasively with ease.
Inspect organ function and make diagnoses quickly and confidently. Connect more deeply with patients for quality care.Time savings and clinical accuracy of a new miniature ultrasound device was investigated utilizing comparison with conventional high-end ultrasound instruments. The main diagnostic strengths of the portable device were in the detection of ascites (sensitivity 80%), diagnosis of fatty liver, and identification of severe parenchymal liver damage. Mean time for overall examination per patient with the portable ultrasound device was shorter (25.0 ± 4.5 min) than with the high-end machine (29.4 ± 4.4 min; p < 0.001). When measuring the size of liver, spleen, and kidneys, the values obtained differed significantly between portable device and the high-end instrument.
Instant insight
Ultrasound system wherever needed for instant insight at the emergency bedside. This pocket-sized ultrasound device offers immediate access to imaging for timely, more informed decision making at the point of care. Designed with the FAST (Focused Abdominal Sonography for Trauma) exam in mind, the ACUSON P10 system features ED specific presets, instant power-up, and a simple, intuitive PDA-style interface. An SD Memory Card and USB port make storing and outputting images or clips easy and fast.This ultra-portable ultrasound system complements our initial diagnostic assessment by helping to verify clinical suspicions, decreasing the time from triage to treatment.
