Ultrasound upgrade at The Portland Hospital for Women and Children
The private hospital has selected Siemens’ syngo® Auto OB software application to automate fetal measurements and has taken delivery of a 18L6 High Frequency, High Density Transducer. The hospital is also benefiting from streamlined workflow, with Siemens’ highly customisable cardiac application that gives sonographers easy access to imaging options, measurements, calculations and reporting.
“When it came to replacing our ultrasound equipment, image quality and ease of use were important factors in the decision making process,” said Dean Meredith, Sonography and Fetal Medicine Lead at Portland Hospital for Women and Children. “The versatility of the S2000 is of huge benefit as illustrated by its use across obstetric, gynaecological, breast, paediatric and cardiac examinations. We are also hoping to use the S2000 for more muscular skeletal work, something we have not had the ability to do in the past.”
