For the next few weeks, you will be taken on a ‘journey of veterinary ultrasound discovery’. Here at Vet Image Solutions we stock a number of different veterinary ultrasound machines that vary from the functions they can carry out, to the animal they can be used on, to their price. If you are considering buying a veterinary ultrasound scanner, there are a number of factors that you need to consider. This has been discussed in a previous article that can be accessed by clicking here.

Nevertheless, it may feel slightly overwhelming if you are considering purchasing a new ultrasound scanner with such a range of machines available, and so these articles aim to demystify the world of veterinary ultrasound. Each week, an individual or group of related veterinary ultrasound machines will be put under the spotlight – their key features will be described, and any noteworthy additional information relating to a particular machine will be looked at.

This week, the focus will be on the Sonoscape S2 colour ultrasound scanner, which is perfect for use on small animals. This piece of ultrasound equipment nicely illustrates the broad application that ultrasound can have in a veterinary-related setting. This scanner is portable and able to be moved from place to place with ease – no more having to lug a heavy scanner in and out of the car whenever you have a new patient. The battery life of 1 hour means that you can comfortably complete a scan without worrying that the scanner is going to shut down, whilst the images will be clear and distinct, thanks to the high resolution monitor that is included along with 4D image technology (optional). Furthermore, you also have the option to add on additional advanced imaging technology such as Panoramic Imaging and Trapezoid Imaging, whilst images can be quickly and conveniently evaluated during scanning with the clip-board function. If you would like more details on any of these terms, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The Sonoscape S2 colour ultrasound scanner is suitable for use in (although not limited to) abdominal examinations and for vascular and urological applications. A particularly interesting feature of this scanner is in the inclusion of software that has the capacity to carry out post-measurements and calculations, meaning it does all the hard work for you and frees you up to continue with your day. If that isn’t enough to convince you that the Sonoscape S2 colour ultrasound scanner is a must-have for you (and your patients), this machine also has a range of working modes including M mode and Colour mode, and can be used with a number of transducers, such as convex, linear and phased array.

One main benefit of the Sonoscape S2 colour ultrasound scanner machine is that it operates in a way that is easiest for you…why not customize the work settings, ensuring that you can work in the most efficient and effective way possible? Finally, this scanner allows rapid retrieval of patient data, a must for those days when you just don’t have enough time.
