Looking for Technical Specifications
Your primary application should be the main determining factor when deciding on a specific platform. Although many ultrasound systems are capable of scanning an OB patient, a system specifically built for an OB practice will often include many features and benefits that will produce better scans and reduce scanning times. However, it's still important to consider the basics of any ultrasound machine, such as the frequencies that will be used, the power source, requirements and power output, the size and weight, battery life, and so on. You should question paying for technologies that at not yet reimbursed from insurance. Intima Medial Thickness (IMT) is a great example of added technology that has not yet received widespread reimbursement.
