E.I. Medical Imaging introduces a new generation of portable veterinary ultrasound
Loveland, Colo. — Veterinarians and producers now have the tools they need to diagnose pregnancy, abdominal abnormalities or tendon injuries, no matter where their practice takes them. This fall, E.I. Medical Imaging, the only U.S.-based manufacturer of portable veterinary ultrasound designed specifically for veterinary use, will debut the Ibex Pro and Ibex Lite for expanded bovine, equine, swine, exotic and large/small veterinary applications.
Companies like E.I. Medical Imaging have worked for years to improve the functionality and bio-security of portable ultrasound used for animal health. The advent of improved technology helps veterinarians and producers troubleshoot management issues that affect animal health—and ultimately an operation's bottom line—whether in the barn or in the field.
“The Ibex family of ultrasound systems is the culmination of 25 years of customer input, research and development. E.I. Medical Imaging is proud to introduce the Ibex as our fifth generation of ultrasound systems, providing veterinarians and producers alike with the tools and information they require to be competitive in today's demanding environments. We have high expectations for the Ibex,” said Charles Maloy, president of E.I. Medical Imaging.
Developed exclusively for animal and livestock needs based on intensive research and input from vets, producers, breeders and current users, the new Ibex Pro and Ibex Lite are the strongest new challengers in ultra-portable ultrasound.
New features such as quick zoom, cine loop (four-second video playback), CompactFlash image storage, USB and wireless links, voice tag, track ball navigation, and Bluetooth RFID reader for animal identification are all contained in a bio-secure casing using DuraScan technology to improve system ruggedness and durability. Kevlar reinforced transducers further assure that the entire system can withstand the rigors of field use. High-resolution scans on either the Ibex LCD monitor or InSite2 monitor headset expedite accurate examinations anywhere.
“Ultrasound is probably the most valuable piece of equipment ever used on a sow farm. The reduction in non-productive sow days has been about eight days. Improved reproductive performance, farrowing and conception rate, and the ability to troubleshoot management problems are just some of the advantages we have seen at Prestage Farms. Our team uses the ultrasound as a production tool on a daily basis,“ stated Mark Daughtry of Prestage Farms.
Ibex Pro and Ibex Lite portable ultrasound systems will be available to veterinarians and producers by Fall 2008. For more information, contact Mia Varra, marketing manager, at 1-866-365-6596 or visit www.IbexUltrasound.com.
E.I. Medical Imaging, a world leader in veterinary diagnostic ultrasound for 25 years, provides versatile, portable systems designed for use in the field.
