Ultrasound Application Designed for Women's Health

Posted on 04 Feb 2009
A new ultrasound tool is designed to enable women's health clinicians to provide comprehensive care in the patient exam room. More...


The newest product in SonoSite's (Bothell, WA,USA) S Series product line is an innovative, custom-designed solution that joins the M-OB/Gyn Office and the S-Gyn ultrasound tools as part of SonoSite's innovative suite of products for women's health.

"The S-Women's Health is great to have in the exam room because if a patient comes in with a lump, I am able to quickly and easily determine if it is something like fibrocystic thickening, or if it requires additional evaluations,” said Deanna J. Attai, M.D., FACS, Center for Breast Care (Burbank, CA, USA).

The S-Women's Health ultrasound tool is designed with women's health clinicians in mind. It is sophisticated, yet simple, and easy to use. Buttons, dials, and menus have been eliminated from the interface, with the exception of two controls- Depth and Gain- for acquiring the optimum image quality. SonoSite's proprietary advanced technologies, SonoHD and SonoMB, are incorporated, providing very clear imaging and enabling the physician to visualize minute details. With the capacity to zero-in on a targeted area, SonoSite's advanced SonoAdapt technology enables the clinician to confidently locate masses, target lesions, guide biopsies, and initiate a course of treatment.

The S-Women's Health tool is engineered to be placed on a stand or mounted on an exam room ceiling or wall to be easily accessible at the examination table. The system is configured to work with four broadband transducers to provide high-resolution superficial, abdominal, vascular, and pelvic imaging, allowing clinicians to address a wide spectrum of women's health concerns.

SonoSite, Inc. provides extensive training and education programs delivered on site, online, and in collaboration with leading medical institutions and educators. SonoSite is a developer of hand-carried ultrasound devices.
