Diagnosis essentially means examination and developing opinion about uncertainties. Within the medical industry, it holds a vital stage for check-up and then after treatment. The faith of a patient in the diagnostic findings is based on the fact that an accurate judgement determines to be a boon to the patient. Moreover, timely care of millions of critically ill patients in India is a challenging task in pre-hospital and intensive care settings. The accompanying high morbidity and mortality in emergency cases means that accurate decision making is imperative. Globally, clinicians are appreciating the benefit of point-of-care (POC) ultrasound in treatment of patients in such critical situations. POC ultrasound has transformed the way of managing emergency situations. A two-minute ultrasound examination can save a life by reducing the time of diagnosis and treatment.
FUJIFILM SonoSite India, the pioneer of cutting-edge ultrasound tools, works towards bringing quality point-of-care ultrasound to the patients in hospital and out of hospital through our cutting-edge products and educative training workshops. The ultrasound systems that the company offers enhanced image quality and aids diagnostic confidence of the healthcare physician. The compact, lightweight design with a high resolution screen and easy to use feature of these systems make easy for physicians to give hand-on training to the beginners on POC ultrasound usage.
“Our ultrasound systems have the best battery back-up with a very less boot-up time, thereby serving the greatest need in point-of-care imaging in various emergency departments. SonoSite’s various products available in the market are dedicated to bring high quality ultrasound to patients.” said Pavan Behl, Director and General Manager – India & Middle East, FUJIFILM SonoSite India
Its recently launched POC ultrasound system, the X-PORTE ULTRASOUND KIOSK has defined a moment in the next phase of SonoSite’s innovation strategy and is an important milestone in SonoSite’s ongoing effort to improve access to POC ultrasound visualisation.

The M-Turbo® ultrasound system offers striking image quality. Our most versatile system for abdominal, nerve, vascular, cardiac, venous access, pelvic, and superficial imaging. The M-Turbo® ultrasound system gives you striking image quality with sharp contrast resolution and clear tissue delineation. This ultrasound equipment lets you visualise details, improving your ability to differentiate structures, vessels and pathology. |

S Series™ ultrasound machines are the industry’s first mountable ultrasound. They offer a zero footprint and can be mounted on a wall, the ceiling, or a stand. Our mountable ultrasound systems have a simplified control that let you focus in on your target areas in a matter of seconds. High-resolution images help you see exactly where to perform procedures and allow for accurate diagnoses when treating patients. The S Series ultrasound machines are built to meet U.S. military standards for durability. They boot up quickly, are lightweight, and are built with intuitive designs for ease of use. |

The NanoMaxx® ultrasound system combines best-in-class performance with affordability and simplicity. With its uniquely simple control, high-quality diagnostic imaging, color power Doppler and color-flow velocity, the NanoMaxx® ultrasound system helps physicians make clinical decisions or guide interventional procedures. Not only is the NanoMaxx a portable ultrasound machine, it uses proprietary technology so you can optimize many system settings at the touch of one dial. |
As told by Behl, “FUJIFILM SonoSite considers physician education and training so critical in the use of POC ultrasound, that it integrated education and learning in its newest generation of POC ultrasound: the X-Porte Ultrasound Kiosk.” He said, “We believe that education and training combined with technical talent, critical decision making ability, and Imagination together make POC ultrasound a lifesaving tool and improving care delivery and patient satisfaction in India. For this purpose, we have partnered with leading Indian institutions, associations and medical centres to provide POC ultrasound training to physicians, nurses and other clinicians and helping deliver the best possible care to the society. Going forward, we plan to hold many more similar workshops in various cities to provide education and training to physicians wanting to integrate point-of-care ultrasound in their daily practice.”
The kiosk was created to serve a broad spectrum of users, from novice to advanced, and represents an entirely new design and use paradigm for ultrasound. Through its easily customisable touch-screen interface, X-Porte puts at your fingertips leading-edge capabilities and onboard educational resources, such as step-by-step tutorials viewable simultaneously with live scans.
X-Porte incorporates a breakthrough, proprietary beam-forming technology: XDI (Extreme Definition Imaging). This signal analysis algorithm shapes X-Porte’s ultrasound beam to pinpoint precision. The result? Artefact clutter is substantially reduced while contrast resolution is significantly enhanced.
To maximise the utility of the XDI technology, X-Porte delivers optimum usability and interoperability through its groundbreaking visual learning guides. The kiosk integrates high-resolution ultrasound imaging synchronously with 3D animations that enable “any user, any time of day” to make the most of the operating the technology. These learning modules can be used simultaneously with live scanning to optimise in-the-moment performance and user consistency.
Its slender profile makes it easy to move alongside beds and exam tables for point-of-care imaging. For portability and durability during transport, X-Porte’s screen folds down and its stand lowers making X-Porte even more compact for navigating busy corridors. This unique design was developed by SonoSite in partnership with Henry Ford Hospital Chair of Surgery Scott Dulchavsky, MD, PhD, who has pioneered medical training tutorials for astronauts. Real-time learning on the product enables any and all members of a healthcare team—nurses, mid-level providers, and even a physician-hospital administrator—to be empowered to take advantage of X-Porte’s high-performance visualisation.
The highly cleanable, sealed user interface was designed with minimal crevices to facilitate optimal infection control. The glass surface has been tested against incidental spills and allows cleaning with a wide range of disinfectants without deteriorating the surface over time.
