Portable-ultrasound technology developer Terason of Burlington, MA, has launched Impact 2009, the newest release of its Impact ultrasound platform.
Impact 2009 includes additional color maps to provide a more vivid color display. Better lateral resolution, vibrant vessel colors, and more clearly defined pixels enhance sensitivity and color resolution, resulting in an increase in productivity and decrease in scan time, according to the company.
Other improvements include a new intuitive user interface that allows users to quickly and easily begin an exam. An added feature to the interface is the new optical trackball that provides a smooth feeling with greater control for accurate point-and-click placement.
Finally, Impact 2009's advanced DICOM compression offers new file choices, resulting in a smaller study size without compromising image quality. The improvement provides faster and easier transfer of studies to third-party Web-based reporting and analysis applications, as well to PACS networks.
