CE Marking for Portable Ultrasound Platform Integrated with Mobile Computing and Advanced Connectivity

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 23 Sep 2015
A new portable point-of-care ultrasound device, intended for use in hospitals, clinics, during patient transport, or home visits, has received the CE Marking (Conformité Européenne).

The device is lightweight, can be controlled with one hand, and has a thumb-operated user interface. More...
The device is integrated with a tablet that features a seven-inch high-resolution, high definition, color flow touch-screen, WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, HDMI, and audio interface ports, and a large viewing angle within a wide dynamic range.

The iViz was designed by FUJIFILM SonoSite (Bothell, Washington, USA), and enables the use of ultrasound even in remote locations at the point-of-care. The iViz integrates ultrasound with medical IT (Internet Technology) resources, providing clinicians with access to learning resources, vital patient information, and online applications. The iViz integrates with the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and other hospital IT systems allowing clinicians access to patient demographics, and cloud services for submitting reports, and sharing studies for assessments.

The iViz supports M-Mode, Color Velocity Doppler, and high resolution 2-D imaging, and is available with a P21v phased-array 5 MHz transducer. The iViz uses the SonoADAPT Tissue Optimization Technology, SonoHD2 Imaging Technology software.

Masayuki Higuchi, president and CEO of FUJIFILM SonoSite, said, “FUJIFILM SonoSite delivers a powerful and valuable solution to the market with the launch of iViz. It is a revolutionary tool that reaches new levels of mobility, image performance, and connectivity. Clinicians will now have access to technology that can be used on-the move, in-the-field or on-the ground."
