Advantages of Bladder Scanner over conventional scanners

1. Accuracy 

The Meike bladder scanner use the Bladder reconstruction technology, its accuracy is ±15%, ±15ml (0~150ml); ±10%, ±15ml (150~999ml).

The conventional scanner can't give a precise number, it needs a sonographer to calculate it by measuring the width, depth and height. Its average accuracy is ±30%. It has a very limited use in clinical practice.

2. Efficiency

The bladder scanner can give a result automatically. The scanning time would be 4 seconds to 5 seconds.

It also doesn't require a sonographer and a nurse would be able to do this job after some simple training.

In clinical use, this characteristic would improve the efficiency of the hospital and help patients rehabilitate more quickly.

3. Outline the bladder edge

Meike bladder scanner utilises the Bladder edge recognition techniques on each B-mode images.  It outlines the edge by red lines. The user can judge if it use the correct area to calculate. If not, you should relocate the bladder. It makes the result more scientific and reliable.

4. It helps to reduce unnecessary catheterization and nosocomial infections. 

By measuring the bladder volume to decide the need of catheterization, hospitals could save a lot on the unnecessary catheterization and catheter-associated infections. 

It also improves the treatment experience for patients.

5. Multi scan mode

Scan mode: Male, Female, Paediatric (Residual), making it more accurate.

Scan planes: 12 planes/ 24 planes.

• 12 planes more quick in the scanning and calculation.
• 24 planes more accurate in the result.
