Ultrasound Training Probe (Sector Array)

Descripción

The ultrasound fan is a portable and durable tool for medical students, residents and sonography educators. It allows the teacher to demonstrate ultrasound movements such as fanning or rocking the probe, and helps learners see in real-time the effects of the movements on the ultrasound’s plane of cut. The instructor can demonstrate probe adjustments without taking control of the probe from the learner. It also helps cut through complex orientation jargon so that small movements of the fan in hand create tangible visual effects with the acrylic ultrasound “beam”. The clear durable acrylic is waterproof and you can make erasable drawings on the surface as you go. There is a 20 cm scale/marking/engraving down the middle to further clarify concepts of depth in anatomical structures. The smooth lightweight handle can be disassembled for added portability and has magnets for easy reassembly. This has become an essential part of our teaching routine, and it is hard to imagine teaching a session without having it in our tool kit.
