Soundwaves Expands Portable Ultrasound Technology Operations to Cardiology
/“Soundwaves makes sure to use and train its technologists on the latest generation of ultrasound technology, enabling capabilities such as 3-D transvaginal sonography (TVS). The company said this relatively new technique provides superior insight into certain pelvic structures impossible to capture with legacy 2-D imaging, such as uterine morphology and congenital uterine anomalies, location of fibroids in relation to the endometrium, endometrial polyps and confirming the location of an IUD (intrauterine device). Three-dimensional TVS is increasingly becoming the first action step for diagnosis, rather than invasive procedures such as hysteroscopy or laparoscopy, or a far costlier magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam. Many organizations lack the ability to perform 3-D TVS in-house, and they are even more likely lacking the expertise to accurately assess and communicate the results of that imaging.”
