The thrill of acquiring a new ultrasound machine can be overwhelming, but it’s important to approach the process with a discerning eye. Over the past ten years, ultrasound machines have made leaps and bounds in terms of imaging resolution, digital capabilities, and user-friendliness. This progress is largely due to the fact that ultrasound systems are […]
Ultrasound machines have become essential tools in the medical field, providing crucial imaging for diagnostic purposes and guiding various treatments. Acquiring an ultrasound machine, however, can be a significant investment, especially for small clinics and private practices. In this article, we will discuss the various advantages of renting an ultrasound machine over purchasing one outright. […]

Current diagnostic ultrasonography technology uses probes containing an acoustic ultrasound transducer (or several ultrasound transducers) to send pulses of ultrasound into matter. When the mechanical wave comes upon a boundary between two different materials (different acoustic impedance) energy is reflected back to the ultrasound transducer. This reflected energy echo is detected by theprobe. The time […]
Ultrasound machines used for diagnostic imaging or therapy emit ultrasound (high-frequency) waves that penetrate different types of tissue in the body. This kind of diagnostic equipment produces images without using harmful radiation as with x-rays. Due to the fact that ultrasound machines do not produce any ionizing radiation, it is very safe for human beings. […]
