Stork Healthcare has types of ultrasound transducers to cover whole-body examinations and to meet different clinical requirements. Stork Healthcare ultrasound probe types: Standard Linear wireless ultrasound probe, Convex portable ultrasound probe, Phased Array probes. There are three series of different ultrasound probes: H31C/L, S31C/L, Lite31C/L/P.
Medical ultrasonic diagnosis and treatment technology is widely used with easy operation, low cost, no ionization, non-invasive or low trauma. The core component of ultrasonic equipment is an ultrasonic probe. Through the filling of an intermediate medium ultrasonic coupling agent, the ultrasonic probe and human body form a complete sealed acoustic wave penetration system, so as to complete disease diagnosis.
To know how to choose a portable ultrasound machine, you should learn some knowledge of ultrasound technology. Ultrasound is an advanced medical technology with good directionality. It is a common diagnostic method for doctors. Ultrasound is divided into A-type (oscillographic) method, B-type (imaging) method, M-type (echocardiography) method, fan type (two-dimensional echocardiography) method, Doppler ultrasound method, etc. In fact, the B-type method is divided into line scan (linear ultrasound probe), fan scan (fanning ultrasound probe) and arc scan (curved ultrasound probe), that is, the fan method should also be included in the B-type method. Buy quality portable ultrasound machines, please contact Stork first. As a professional pocket ultrasound probe manufacturer, we aim to make handheld ultrasound affordable for everyone.
Wireless Connectivity
Stork Healthcare handheld wireless ultrasound probe can easily connect with tablets or phones by scanning the QR code. The cable-free design makes customers convenient to use.
Strong Power
With the built-in 6000 mAh Lithium battery, the continuous working hour of ultrasound machine probes can last 3 hours. Moreover, the wireless charger makes charging more easier.
More Imaging Modes
As a mature ultrasound probe manufacturer, Stork has developed four imaging modes B/C/M/PW to extend the application scenarios of the ultrasound transducer probe.
Better Performance
Stork wireless ultrasound transducer has 32 channels and 128 elements, therefore the imaging quality can exceed some competitive brands of handheld ultrasound, even some portable ultrasound scanners.
Automatic Recognition Scan Easier
At present, Stork has developed its own artificial intelligence guidance of somebody parts such as carotid artery and IMT. This guidance of the wireless ultrasound transducer will help novices to scan easier.
A phased array ultrasound transducer is typically 2-3 cm long, consisting of 64-128 elements. Phased arrays mean the array arranged in a specific sequence in order to direct the sound wave in a specific direction. A phased array ultrasound probe typically has a smaller footprint than a linear or curved array probe, but can still image a large area.
The Phased Array transducer can be applied in Cardiac examinations and Abdominal examinations
The element is the most important component of the wireless ultrasound transducer. It is a thin disc of piezoelectric material near the front surface of the transducer. The crystal material may possess its piezoelectric properties naturally, but more commonly, the piezoelectric properties are artificially induced using a combination of thermal and electrical treatment.
Ultrasound propagates in the human body. Due to the acoustic characteristics of various tissues of the human body, the ultrasonic waves produce reflection, refraction, scattering, diffraction, attenuation at the interface of two different tissues, and the relative movement of the sound source and receiver produces Doppler shift also other physical properties. Receiving the reflected and scattered signal to display various tissue lesions and morphological, then combine the pathology to clinical observation, make the analyze and summarize for the different reflection law also the lesion degree of functional barrier properties then make a diagnosis. This is the working principle of a USG ultrasonic transducer.
There are sensors, chips, and lithium batteries inside a portable wireless ultrasound transducer.
Advantages of an internal ultrasound transducer probe: Accurate and Instant Diagnoses; Improved Patient Throughput; Affordable Care; A Boon in Emergency Settings; Increased Patient Engagement; Improved Ease of Operation and Convenience; Availability of Many Features and Options.
Step 1: Use the Glutaraldehyde solution for disinfection.
Step 2: The head of the curved ultrasound probe coated with a gel and then cap with a sterile cover, the examination site with saline or sterile cotton ball to wipe can be used to replace disinfection for the sonography probe. Be careful when you disinfect a linear transducer ultrasound.
Thyroid ultrasound is a so simple and quick procedure. There is almost without special preparation that you only need to be bare-necked. And due to the medical ultrasonic gel smeared on the mobile ultrasound probe during the examination, you will need to wipe the gel remaining in the overlying skin with some tissues. The convex array transducer is to the benefits of imaging of abdomen, kidney, obstetrics.
Wireless ultrasound probes are important and expensive, so you have to caution that:
1. Do not throw, drop, or knock the transducer
2. Don't cover the snowflakes fan (it's a cooling fan)on the H/S transducers in use
3. Wipe the gel from the transducer after each use
4. Do not sluice with alcohol-based confections
5. Keep water from the snowflakes fan, it's not waterproof.
The A-type ultrasonic testing method is commonly used to judge whether there are abnormal lesions from the wave amplitude, wave number and wave order on the oscillograph. It is reliable in the diagnosis of cerebral hematoma, brain tumour, cyst, pleural and ascitic swelling, early pregnancy, hydatidiform mole and so on.
The B-type ultrasonic testing method is the most commonly used ultrasonic testing method, which can obtain various sectional patterns of human viscera. Diagnosis of the brain, eyeball (such as retinal detachment), orbit, thyroid, liver (such as small liver cancer less than 1.5cm in diameter), gallbladder and biliary tract, pancreas, spleen, obstetrics, gynaecology, urology (kidney, bladder, prostate and scrotum), differential diagnosis of abdominal mass, intra-abdominal macrovascular diseases (such as abdominal aortic aneurysm and inferior vena cava embolism), neck and limb macrovascular diseases, are very effective. The graph is intuitive and clear, and it is easy to find small lesions.
The M-type ultrasonic testing method records the echo distance curve between the heart and the chest wall (probe) according to the structural activities of the heart in vivo.
From the graph provided by the cardiac ultrasound probe, we can clearly recognize the characteristics of the heart wall, ventricular septum, heart cavity, valve and so on. ECG and phonocardiogram display records are often added at the same time to diagnose a variety of heart diseases.
Various sectional images of the heart can be obtained by the fan method, and different manifestations of cardiac systole and diastole can be observed. Because the graph it sees is more comprehensive, the diagnostic range greatly exceeds the M-type method and is more detailed and accurate. In addition, this method can be used to diagnose liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, brain, obstetrics and Gynecology and other diseases.
- When purchasing wireless ultrasound probe, make sure to check the central frequency of the device as different frequencies allow different measurements. Normally, portable USG probes with lower frequencies will provide better penetration, while wireless ultrasound probes with higher frequencies will have a greater sensitivity.
- Make sure the ultrasonic probe type you are purchasing is the right one for the examinations you do.
- Purchase with professional handheld ultrasound probe companies so you can have better pre- and after-sale services.
