Terason will bring the latest version of its handheld ultrasound system to Chicago.
Terason 2000 system will feature new software that increases the performance of all major functions, including 2-D, color Doppler, and PW Doppler on the 128-channel system.
New transducers and imaging formats will allow for increased use of the system in pediatric, neonatal, OB/GYN, urology, small parts, and neurosurgery applications, according to the Burlington, MA-based vendor.
Terason will also introduce voice control of system functions. Voice activation is designed to decrease exam time and enhance use in challenging cases or environments such as the OR, Terason said. New 3-D rendering capability will be available as an option.
Based on an open Microsoft Windows-powered PC platform, the product has integrated image and data management capabilities for reviewing, storing, and sharing patient study information. Images and reports can be transferred and archived via a DICOM- compatible network or through various removable media, including CD-RW. The system is also able to export images in JPEG, TIFF, and BMP file formats, Terason said.
