A Unique, Patented Convertible Ultrasound™ Platform
By offering an innovative way to capture and process ultrasound images, Zone Sonography technology is more than just a revolutionary advancement. The z.one platform, powered by Zone Sonography, is the world’s first Convertible Ultrasound system, instantly converting from a full-featured cart-based system into a premium compact, ultrasound system with all the performance of substantially larger and more expensive ultrasound units, yet, with greater portability and flexibility than conventional compact systems.
This flexibility without performance compromise allows the clinician to concentrate on the demands of their workflow, instead of compromising the patient study using conventional compact ultrasound systems. Essentially, the z.one ultrasound platform is two systems in one.
The removable Scan Engine is a premium compact unit that can be undocked from all three z.one ultrasound systems and transported to the patient’s bedside quickly and easily. The compact unit weighs 5.5 pounds and can be used for hand-supported, one-thumb operation.
The state-of-the-art z.one ultrasound systems uses revolutionary Zone Sonography technology to deliver full-featured premium compact ultrasound performance and unique workflow advantages. Whether using the z.one systems in their cart-based configuration or the ultra-portable Scan Engine, it is never necessary to compromise full-featured performance.
Economic, Ergonomic and Efficient Imaging Solution for a Wide Variety of Environments
The z.one platform is ideal for both traditional and non-traditional clinical settings such as the large hospital-based Radiology departments that demand premium performance for portable exams, Emergency Medicine departments, where access to the patient may be limited and time at a premium, and to situations where the patient is difficult to access, such as the ICU. Its adaptability and flexibility combined with premium quality imaging enable the system to adapt to the workflow on demand, substantially improving productivity and responsiveness.
The combination of portability and image quality also makes it possible to perform more examinations per day by enabling the clinician to transport the scanner quickly and easily, reducing the necessity for repeat scanning due to questionable image quality. Additionally, focal zones are no longer an issue, saving a substantial amount of time.
The z.one platform provides comparableimage quality and functionality as the conventional 300 to 400-pound ultrasound cart-based system. Yet it is substantially smaller, lighter, more maneuverable, and nimbler than any system of equivalent image quality. The operator is therefore relieved of the sheer physical burden of pushing unwieldy equipment, especially when using the system in its compact form.
