Ultrasound Surgical ultrasound is a powerful tool for use before, during, and after surgery. For over a quarter of a century, our BK Medical subsidiary has been devoted to the development and production of high-quality diagnostic ultrasound imaging equipment. Focusing on the unique challenges of surgery, BK Medical offers a wide range of intraoperative and laparoscopic probes. Intraoperative
 |
In combination with the Pro Focus™ or Pro Focus OR ultrasound scanner, BK Medical’s intraoperative transducers help surgeons determine the optimal course of action in surgery by making it easier to: - Differentiate between structures, prevent complications, and maneuver safely
- Operate in tight cavities with small and ergonomically designed equipment
- Increase accuracy with live simultaneous biplane needle guidance
| LaparoscopyThe advantages of laparoscopy are well known; less invasive than open surgery, laparoscopy is more comfortable/less painful for the patient and enables a faster recovery following a procedure. Laparoscopic ultrasound elevates this technique even further by opening up the field of view during surgery. Laparoscopic ultrasound allows the surgeon to image relevant regions, visualize and explore deep structures, and obtain the information needed to proceed in optimal fashion. BK Medical also has ultrasound imaging equipment for laparoscopically guided biopsies, which makes it possible to carry out staging in a minimally invasive way.
