Follow on Google News | SonoSite EDGE™ provides a winning formula for HarlequinsAn EDGE™ point-of-care ultrasound system from FUJIFILM SonoSite is helping the Medical Services team at Harlequin FC rugby club to diagnose and monitor musculoskeletal injuries.
By: Sonosite “Real-time imaging allows us to more accurately identify the grade of injuries, as well as giving some prognostic indication in terms of the period of rehabilitation that might be required. Being able to show the patient the exact nature of the injury can also be very useful, as any professional rugby player will want to continue training. Conversely, we can use it to reassure them that an injury has fully healed following rehabilitation, so it works both ways.” “We chose the SonoSite EDGE system because it is very robust and portable, and offered the best image resolution of all the portable instruments we looked at. It is also very easy to use, with few adjustments required to get a good image, which is important for multiple users with differing levels of ultrasound experience. All in all, we are very happy with the system, and are hoping to train the entire medical team to use it.” For more information about FUJIFILM SonoSite products, please contact: FUJIFILM SonoSite Ltd T +44 (0)1462 341151, ukresponse@sonosite.com www.sonosite.co (http://www.sonosite.com/ About FUJIFILM SonoSite SonoSite helped pioneer the concept of portable, point-of-care ultrasound, and it continues to be a world-leading manufacturer and innovator of bedside ultrasound systems as well as an industry leader in ultra high-frequency micro-ultrasound technology.
