Sonosite

edit

SonoSite, Inc., specialist in hand-carried ultrasound, is an innovator in the rapidly growing, global portable ultrasound market. Through its expertise in ASIC design, SonoSite is able to offer imaging performance typically found in costly ultrasound machines weighing more than 300 pounds in a system that is approximately the size and weight of a laptop computer.

This breakthrough is transforming and expanding the worldwide diagnostic ultrasound market by serving existing clinical markets more efficiently and creating new point-of-care applications where ultrasound was either too cumbersome or too expensive to be used before. With over 40,000 systems sold since 1999, SonoSite® products are known for exceptional performance, ease of use and durability.
