Powerful, New bk5000 Ultrasound System Featured at RSNA
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Premium System Offers Superb Image Quality, Simplicity and Speed
PEABODY, Mass., Nov. 30, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Analogic
Corporation (Nasdaq:ALOG), enabling the world's medical imaging and aviation
security technology, today announced that it will demonstrate its new
bk5000((TM)) ultrasound system at the 101(st) Scientific Assembly and Annual
Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), November 29 -
December 4. The newest addition to the flagship BK Ultrasound brand products,
the bk5000 is designed to give surgeons the real-time guidance they need in the
operating room, seamlessly fitting into the rhythm of the surgical team.
The bk5000 is designed to help surgeons work smarter and faster. The superior
image quality of the bk5000 provides surgeons with the anatomical detail they
need to help confirm or adjust their procedure in real-time. The new No-Touch
Autogain feature rapidly and automatically optimizes image quality without user
intervention, independent of depth, by adapting gain to different environments.
"We considered the increasing complexities of healthcare technology,
specifically in the operating room, and designed the bk5000 for simplicity,"
said Jacques Coumans, vice president, chief marketing and scientific officer at
Analogic. "The bk5000 addresses the need for fast, high-quality imaging that
will help the surgeon make confident decisions."
Analogic will also highlight its breakthrough Sonic Window(®) handheld
ultrasound device designed to improve first stick success in dialysis and other
vascular access applications. A self-contained, portable ultrasound device,
Sonic Window operates on a rechargeable battery, without power cables or a cart.
It is designed to improve success with difficult vascular access by helping
clinicians to better assess and visually guide insertion of needles and
catheters. The Sonic Window is small and easy to fit in a pocket.
In addition to the bk5000, Analogic will showcase its industry leading family of
premium ultrasound systems, and the BioJet((TM))MRI-ultrasound Fusion system
designed to enhance procedure guidance.
The company will also showcase its newest innovative products that deliver
breakthrough reliability for the lowest cost of ownership in CT, MRI, and
digital mammography. Featured products will include the newest addition to
Analogic's CT portfolio; its latest 1.5T RF amplifier for MRI; and its newest
Selenium-based, direct-digital detector for mammography. Visit Analogic at Booth
#6124 during RSNA 2015. More information may be found at www.analogic.com.
