Everything Changes in the Zone
ddfdsfZone Sonography technology, developed by ZONARE Medical Systems, is an innovative approach to echo data acquisition and image formation. Conventional ultrasound systems, both cart-based and compact, acquire and process echo data line-by-line and therefore are limited by the time required for sound propagation in the patient’s body.
Zone Sonography technology acquires ultrasound data very quickly in a relatively small number of large ‘zones’, each of which contains a volume of data equivalent to many lines in a conventional system. Zone Sonography technology acquires data up to ten times faster than conventional systems.
Faster data acquisition and unique image processing enable our z.one ultrasound system to provide premium image quality, performance and features as well as advanced image processing capabilities without the limitations of conventional systems.
Zone Sonography technology leverages processor power today and is built to exploit future processor power advances. According to Moore’s Law, processing power will continue to double approximately every eighteen months for the foreseeable future, offering the promise of substantially improved speed and capability. Since conventional systems are implemented primarily through hardware, they do not significantly benefit from increased processing power.
