Aloka previews new ultrasound offering

Aloka has introduced its latest ultrasound offering, the ProSound F75, at the 20th World Congress on Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG 2010) in Prague this week.

The system offers “sound velocity” adjustments to alter the frequency at which the signal is passed through tissue for different tissue densities and has more than 45 user presets that can be selected by physicians, according to the Tokyo-based company. The system will be available for shipment in Europe, beginning in November.
