FUJIFILM SONOSITE has announced CE mark and 510(k) clearance for its new portable ultrasound system, the SonoSite Edge II.
Designed with emergency medicine and critical care applications in mind, the Edge II features innovative transducer technology that delivers a better imaging experience for the most rugged environments.
In the acute care environment, reducing the time to make an accurate diagnosis is a critical need. The Edge II features DirectClear technology, a novel, patented process that is available on select transducers. DirectClear elevates transducer performance by increasing penetration and contrast resolution. This transducer innovation, combined with a new wide-angle display that offers a 33% increase in viewing angles, contributes to an unsurpassed imaging experience for the bedside clinician.
Designed to be portable and used in the most rugged environments, the Edge II reinforces the company’s commitment to reliability and durability with Armored Cable Technology. With an embedded metal jacket, armored cables protect transducers from common abuse accident scenarios, like being rolled over, stepped on, or twisted, and help maintain image quality over the life of transducers.
