Benefits
- Proven, reduced image acquisition time
- 25° reverse Trendelenburg and footboard allow for maximum lower extremity vessel dilation1
- Provides an ideal surface for all major ultrasound procedures including vascular, cardiac
echo, small parts, OB/GYN and General Ultrasound2,5
- Protects sonographers from career-ending injuries
by improving procedure ergonomics, which is critical, since recent studies
have revealed that 80% of sonographers are scanning in pain and 20% of those
sonographers eventually experience a career-ending injury1,2
- Foot drop-section and pelvic-cutout allow unhindered
access for probe during endovaginal studies2,5
- Durable stirrups maintain stable patient position2,3,4,5
- Flexible positioning includes upright chair position
