Exciting New Ultrasound Machines In Vision College

            In August 2013, Vision College became the proud owner of twelve brand new ultrasound machines: the SonoScape S11 Digital Trolley Color Doppler Ultrasound System. 

This state of the art diagnostic equipment is designed for utilization by professionally trained sonographers to evaluate various structures in the human body for various medical reasons, including the abdomen, breasts, testes, thyroid and musculoskeletal system. 

This device is also designed for obstetrics, gynecological and pediatric scanning, as well as neonatal and adult cardiac assessment and endocavity investigation.

The SonoScape S11 was specially optimized for experienced users and ultrasound trainees alike, and therefore a perfect fit for the Postgraduate Diploma of Medical Ultrasonography (Asia) students. 

With convenient patient file management, completely user definable presets, ergonomic keyboard and panel layouts, an optimized software platform and an interface capable of myriad diagnostic purposes and image adjustments, the S11 makes teaching of complex ultrasound techniques to beginners to the field a smooth and enjoyable experience. 

The aesthetic design of the apparatus also complements the modern yet modern   yet relaxing environment of a futuristic diagnostic facility and a 21st century medical health science college.



             Patients referred by government polyclinic physicians can be assured of accurate and precise diagnoses of any pathologies they may be suffering from with the high grade pre- and post-processing algorithms installed in the SonoScape S11 system. 

The impressive contrast resolution and custom image optimization will ensure a high signal-to-noise ratio that enables students and tutors alike to detect any abnormalities present in their subject while performing an ultrasound scanning session. 

Best of all, included among the wide variety of probes that was purchased with the machines was a hockey stick linear transducer, which has a substantially superior spatial resolution in comparison with ordinary linear transducers, and vastly improves the efficacy of detecting minute musculoskeletal diseases.

             In conclusion, the addition of SonoScape S11 Digital Trolley Color Doppler Ultrasound System units to Vision College has opened a new chapter of learning in this institution and will lead our charges to unchartered frontiers in medical ultrasonography.
