UltraSim®   Ultrasound Training Simulator

The UltraSim® ultrasound training simulator represents a major, innovative breakthrough for sonography education. The simulator allows students to practice performing sonographic examinations on a mannequin while viewing real-time sonographic images. The scanning motions and techniques used by the students realistically simulate the same skills necessary to examine a patient. By allowing students to practice on the simulator for as much time as they need to achieve initial competency, the students should be able to perform more effectively in a shorter period of time in the actual clinical setting.

The UltraSim® is a complete system simulator with B-mode, Color and Spectral Doppler modes and an intuitively designed, generic control panel. The simulator provides all of the necessary clinical data as well as a detailed, annotated analysis for each patient case. These help the ultrasound resident learn how to prepare a complete patient workup. Other training features allow the educator to easily monitor and evaluate the student's progress.

Patient cases are available in sets of Education Modules. The full-size mannequins provide realistic body contours and soft, pliable sections in the areas to be scanned. The probes do not emit ultrasound energy - they are 3D position sensors that tell the UltraSim® computer the position and angle at which the body volume is being scanned.
