DESCRIPTION
Ultrasound Systems
The SonoSite Edge II Ultrasound System provides an enhanced imaging experience with innovative transducer technologies, such as DirectClear and Armored Cable Technology. As a SonoSite product, it adheres to the pillars of reliability, durability, and ease of use.
FEATURES
DIRECTCLEAR TECHNOLOGY
- DirectClear Technology is a novel process that improves transducer performance. The addition of an efficient material into the design allows for the production of more acoustic signal, leading to improved penetration and contrast resolution. Additionally, a reflective layer is added to minimize signal loss when transmitted into the patient. Another layer is added to create a better acoustic match between the transducer and the patient, enabling sharper detail resolution and boosting diagnostic confidence.
ELEVATED COLOR SENSITIVITY
- With dualflex and thin lens design, coupled with advancements in image optimization, the HFL38xi provides increased penetration, clarity, and color sensitivity, allowing for better visualization of nerves and vessels for procedural guidance or flow analysis.
ARMORED CABLE TECHNOLOGY
- The transducer cables often face common issues such as rolling over, stepping on or twisting, affecting image quality. Armored cables protect the transducers with an embedded metal jacket, safeguarding electrical connections, and maintaining image quality over the life of the transducer.
