We know that in Obstetrics, a sonographer’s time is highly valued. The Vscan Air allows clinicians to perform basic checks quickly, freeing up the sonographer’s time to perform more extensive evaluations like a 20-week anatomy scan, biophysical profile (BPP), etc.

Vscan Air handheld ultrasound configures to your practice’s needs. The ultrasound system facilitates a flexible wireless workflow, making it easy to send images and data wherever you need them to be stored or shared.

Exams can be manually labeled with patient information. Vscan Air synchronizes on-board DICOM® Modality Worklist on request. Such worklist supports consistent labeling of images, videos and exams before exporting to DICOM® PACS.

Data for up to 500 exams can be stored on mobile device and is stored in generic formats: jpg for still frames, mpg for videos. Complementing storage of binary image data can be selected.

All data is organized as individual examinations with collection of images and can be linked with patient identification and can be recalled for review. All saved data will be secured with FIPS 140-2 compliant database encryption.

Vscan Air uses GE Healthcare’s industry-leading dual-probe (2-in-1) technology enabling you to scan patients effortlessly without switching probes between, or during, exams. Each side of Vscan Air’s dual probe is designed to see more detail with no compromise on image quality – either deep in the body or just below the skin. Scans can be completed more efficiently with one device to help you assess and address both adult and pediatric patients’ most common conditions.

The curved transducer for deep scanning supports B-mode, color doppler and harmonic imaging modes. It operates from 2-5 MHz frequency and maximum depth of 24 cm. Specific clinical applications and exam types include: abdominal, fetal/obstetrics, gynecological, urology, thoracic/lung, cardiac (adult and pediatric, 40 kg and above), vascular/peripheral vascular, musculoskeletal (conventional), pediatrics, interventional guidance (includes free hand needle/catheter placement, fluid drainage, nerve block and biopsy).

The high frequency linear transducer for shallow scanning supports B-mode, color doppler and harmonic imaging modes. It operates from 3-12 MHz with a maximum depth of 8 cm.
