Introducing Diagnostic Ultrasound's BVM 6500 BladderScan® - the world's first "2 in 1" handheld scanner for urological diagnosis
08 March 2006
The BVM 6500 is the world's first "2 in 1" handheld scanner for urological diagnosis.
We are pleased to announce our latest product offering to the medical devices market of portable ultrasound. The BladderScan® BVM 6500 UEBW (Ultrasound-Estimated Bladder Weight) and Bladder Volume Instrument.
The BladderScan® family of products consists of lightweight portable ultrasound instruments that measure bladder volume. They provide quick, accurate and reliable results.
The BladderScan® calculates UEBW (bladder wall mass) and volume using patented VMode® technology. VMode® ultrasound is easy to use and comfortable for the patient. Within seconds of pressing the scan button, the VMode® technology measures ultrasonic reflections on multiple planes inside the body and produces a 3-dimensional image. Based on this image, the BladderScan® calculates and displays the UEBW and bladder volume, and displays multiple B-mode images.
Volume measurements made with VMode® ultrasound are more accurate than those from conventional 2-dimensional ultrasound, as they are based on a more complex, 3D image of the bladder.
BladderScan® is as accurate as today's standard method, the catheter. With its simple operation and fast results BladderScan® makes such routine procedure less time consuming for the clinician and more comfortable for the patient.
Through the implementation of BladderScan®, you can improve the quality of care of patients with urinary dysfunction.
