Ultrasound represents one of the most dramatic advancements in modern day medical diagnostics. With roughly 60 million ultrasound scans performed in the US annually, its importance is obvious and technological advances have been significant and consistent. From the introduction of grey scale B-mode imaging in the early 70s, to Doppler 3D/4D scans, ultrasound now represents an invaluable tool in obstetrics, cardiology, emergency medicine and beyond.
Interview with a Cardiologist with Expertise in Echocardiography
We recently spoke with a leading cardiologist specializing in echocardiography and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), whose clinical work focuses on caring for adults with this complex genetic heart condition and whose research focuses on advancing risk prediction and early diagnosis through advanced imaging and computational analysis.
Ultrasound’s Next Leap: The Importance of Transducer Innovation
Ultrasound remains one of the most widely used imaging modalities in medicine. It’s real-time, radiation-free, and comparatively cost-effective. Yet as clinical expectations rise, innovation pressure across the entire ultrasound stack, from software to sensors, has been squeezed as well.
