Uscan is an ultrasound device for bladder care which uses ultrasound and algorithms from the science of computer vision to recognise the 3D contours of 256 bladder slices to generate an accurate volume measurement for obese and other hard-to-scan patients.
It features a removable probe, high-resolution touch screen tablet and handheld displays which makes it suitable for mobile clinical care.
The device is easy to learn and use as it offers real-time user guidance, reducing the need for training.
Uscan is designed to operate on an Android operating system and is embedded with WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity which facilitates a fast and reliable image management and interoperability with electronic health record (EHR) systems.
