Ultrasound Scans

If you're thinking of purchasing an ultrasound machine for your clinic, we'll explain the most relevant points to consider when choosing the one that suits you best.

What is an Ultrasound Machine and What is its Role in Podiatry?

Ultrasound machines, non-invasive state-of-the-art devices, use ultrasound technology for medical diagnosis, increasingly valued for its safety. These devices generate two-dimensional or three-dimensional images, crucial for the analysis of specialists in various medical disciplines.

Their application extends to numerous branches of medicine, covering specialties such as cardiology, urology, gynecology, physiotherapy, among others. Currently, ultrasound machines are successfully gaining ground in the field of podiatry.

How to Use an Ultrasound Machine in Podiatry?

Handling the ultrasound machine requires the expertise of a specialist properly trained in ultrasound, whether it's a doctor, physiotherapist, or podiatrist. At Herbitas, we offer courses and workshops specialized in ultrasound, specifically aimed at podiatry and physiotherapy professionals.

Additionally, we have our Online Classroom where you can find an extensive chapter dedicated to ultrasound machines in podiatry, with real cases and using our own portable ultrasound machines. This way, besides learning, you can see their quality live.

Types of Ultrasound Machines and Criteria for Selection

There are various models of ultrasound machines, and the right choice is crucial to ensure the quality of the images. At Herbitas, we understand the importance of this decision, as the device's quality directly influences the interpretation of results and the success of the investment. We offer a wide range of ultrasound machines, from portable models to fixed systems with specialized supports.

Key Benefits of Using Ultrasound Machines in Podiatry and Physiotherapy

The ultrasound machine is a non-invasive and harmless device that allows for the study of certain soft tissues, which other procedures, such as X-rays, may not appreciate, and is not penalized by radioactive effects.

The ultrasound machine can be used for examining various types of diseases and tests, such as echocardiography, abdominal wall, kidneys, and other organs, including the uterus. Doppler ultrasound allows for the analysis of blood flow velocity, enabling the monitoring of constrictions or occlusions in blood vessels.

In physiotherapy and podiatry, the ultrasound machine is a very useful tool for assessing soft tissues (tendon, muscle, bursa, ligament, subcutaneous cellular tissue, viscera, peripheral nerves, blood vessels) and cortical bone. In sports physiotherapy, it allows for the evaluation of proper joint stabilization, morphology, tendon analysis, and muscle structure, thus facilitating the study of various pathologies such as fractures, compression, or other complications (myositis ossificans, etc.).

Another interesting field in physiotherapy is gynecology, particularly in pelvic floor training (controlled through biofeedback).
