Integration of Cloud-Based Mobile Technology into Portable Ultrasound Devices Announced

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 14 Oct 2015
A leading medical image management provider has announced the integration of their web-based medical image sharing, collaboration, and routing platform into portable ultrasound devices.

The cloud-based platform will enable clinicians to share image information directly from the mobile ultrasound devices to speed up referrals, and consultations with referring physicians for example.

The agreement between Trice Imaging (Del Mar, CA, USA) and FUJIFILM SonoSite (Bothell, WA, USA) covers the integration of Trice Imaging’s Tricefy technology into SonoSite’s iViz portable ultrasound device. More...
The iViz is currently pending US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance, after receiving the CE Marking in Europe.

Under an existing agreement the two companies used a similar solution for a project in Morocco. The project included the use of mobile ultrasound units and a 3-G network for wireless transmission of ultrasound exams to clinicians, reducing the time required for a diagnosis from 14 days to less than 24 hours, and a reduction in costs per patient.

CEO of Trice Imaging Asa Nordgren, said, “We are honored to be working with FUJIFILM SonoSite. As global pioneers in the portable ultrasound industry, they are at the forefront of the changes in the medical imaging market. Imaging devices are getting smaller, smarter and connected, making it possible to provide ultrasound outside the hospital environment. Equipped with Tricefy, iViz enables instantaneous sharing and collaboration between nurses, doctors, home-care providers and paramedics, so that diagnoses can be made remotely, saving precious time and resources. Imaging devices with embedded communication modules are the future of ultrasound technology, soon to be as common as having Wi-Fi and email embedded in your computer!”
