Description
PT12 Point-of-Care Color Doppler Ultrasound System is a revolutionary handheld diagnostic tool engineered to redefine mobility, clarity, and versatility in color Doppler imaging, with an updated, optimized probe lineup tailored to core clinical needs. Developed with advanced imaging technology, this system addresses critical clinical pain points—limited mobility in prehospital settings, unclear blood flow visualization, and inefficient data sharing—delivering hospital-grade color Doppler performance in an ultra-portable form. Weighing only 520g (1.15 lbs) and fitting in a coat pocket, the PT12 empowers clinicians to perform rapid structural and vascular assessments anytime, anywhere—from emergency transport and home care to rural clinics and obstetric wards—accelerating diagnoses when every second counts.
At the core of the PT12’s excellence is its uncompromised imaging quality, driven by three advanced technologies: IClear Technology (enhances penetration and contrast for deep tissue imaging), ptHD Processing (sharpens anatomical detail), and ColorHD Technology (optimizes blood flow visualization). These innovations, paired with a 7″ high-resolution touch screen, 256 shades of gray, and 170dB dynamic range, produce images equivalent to large stationary systems—critical for distinguishing subtle tissue changes, fetal structures, and faint vascular flow signals in trauma, obstetric, and vascular cases. The system supports a full suite of imaging modes, including 2D, Tissue Harmonic, M-Mode, Color Doppler, and Color Power Doppler, enabling quantitative analysis of blood flow velocity and cardiac function.
The PT12 now features 4 optimized, clinically focused transducers (discontinuing legacy models) to deliver targeted performance for high-demand use cases:
- C5-2 (5-2 MHz Curved Array): A versatile general-purpose probe with a 60mm radius and 128 elements, delivering a 6–24cm scan depth. Ideal for abdominal, musculoskeletal, nerve, obstetric (OB), and gynecologic (GYN) imaging, it excels in routine abdominal screenings, fetal monitoring, and pelvic assessments.
- C7-3 (7-3 MHz Curved Array): A compact micro-convex probe with a 20mm radius and 128 elements, offering a 2–10cm scan depth. Designed for neonatal, pediatric, and small-animal veterinary cardiology, it also supports abdominal, nerve, arterial, and venous imaging—perfect for neonatology and point-of-care pediatric assessments.
- L10-5 (10-5 MHz Linear Array): A high-resolution linear probe with a 38mm footprint and 128 elements, covering a 2–7cm scan depth. Optimized for lung, nerve, small parts, arterial, and venous imaging, it delivers clear visualization for vascular access, nerve blocks, and superficial tissue assessments.
- L10-5S (14-6 MHz Linear Array): A high-frequency, compact linear probe with a 25mm footprint and 128 elements, with a 2–7cm scan depth. Tailored for lung, musculoskeletal, nerve, ophthalmic, small parts, arterial, and venous imaging, it provides ultra-high resolution for ophthalmic exams, fine nerve visualization, and superficial vascular assessments.
Designed for one-handed operation, the PT12 features an intuitive touchscreen interface with thumb-operated controls and a balanced grip—enabling stable color Doppler imaging even in moving ambulances or cramped patient rooms. The unique Image Clipboard function allows quick recall of selected color Doppler images for on-the-spot review or comparison, streamlining workflow for busy clinicians. Durability is built into every component: the aircraft-grade aluminum frame and scratch-resistant gorilla-like glass are drop-tested to 3 feet (91cm), while IPX7-rated transducers are fully submersible in water and approved chemicals—safe for rigorous disinfection in high-demand environments.
Data management and collaboration are seamless with the PT12’s robust connectivity. WiFi, Bluetooth, Micro USB, and HDMI enable flexible transfer of color Doppler images and reports, while integration with EMR, PACS, and MX cloud platform accelerates care coordination. The system is telemedicine-ready, supporting secure remote consultation with color Doppler image sharing—ideal for rural or underserved areas needing specialist input. With 64GB of internal storage (capable of storing 250,000+ images or 4,000+ 4-second clips) and a rechargeable swappable lithium-polymer battery, the PT12 supports prolonged fieldwork and high-volume clinical shifts without power or storage constraints.
HIPAA-compliant and DICOM-compatible, the PT12 meets global healthcare standards for data security and interoperability. Its user-friendly design makes it accessible to physicians, midwives, paramedics, and hospitalists—even those with limited ultrasound training—expanding access to critical color Doppler assessments across diverse care settings. From prehospital trauma triage and fetal blood flow monitoring to neonatal cardiology and peripheral vascular evaluations, the PT12 combines portability, performance, and durability to deliver value where care is needed most.
