Ultrasound acoustic measurement and testing firm Acertara Acoustic Laboratories has been awarded a U.S. patent for its Aureon ultrasound probe testing device.
This new patent is the first for Aureon, which is designed to visualize ultrasound energy emanating from the aperture of a probe and detect dead elements and other probe failures, according to the vendor. Acertara said the patent is the 16th it has received for its diagnostic ultrasound system and probe testing devices.
