SonoSite gives chiropractor the Edge™

Dec. 11, 2013 - PRLog -- SonoSite’s point of care ultrasound system is providing invaluable insight into sports injuries and joint and back pain for Harley Street chiropractor Dr Michael Lanning. Dr Lanning explained: “Since its introduction, point-of-care ultrasound has caused a seismic shift in the way we approach certain musculoskeletal problems. Instead of being able to tell patients the likely cause of their discomfort, you can now quickly and easily scan them in the clinic, giving a definitive diagnosis in many cases. It offers a non-invasive, cost-effective solution, and as you become skilful in the technique, you find more and more uses for it, offering a real return on the investment in terms of both time and patient care. I can identify many patients’ conditions much earlier, allowing appropriate treatment to be initiated sooner.”

“I chose SonoSite’s Edge system for its exceptional portability, image quality and fast boot up time. It fits so easily into my everyday practice; I can be scanning within 15 seconds of turning it on. The quality of the images is really good compared to most of the point-of-care instruments I’ve seen, and it’s very easy to use. The five year warranty is also a real bonus in a very busy practice. Having the instrument available whenever I need it, wherever I am, has been brilliant; a real game changer.”
