Product Description: SLATE SCAN ULTRASONIC A-SCAN BIOMETER

Model: SLATE SCAN
Manufacturer/Brand: CARE GROUP
Serial Number: 009
Product ID: #14
Device Type: Ultrasonic A-Scan Biometer (A-Scan Biometry System)

Overview

The SLATE SCAN Ultrasonic A-Scan Biometer is a precision ophthalmic diagnostic device designed for accurate measurement of the human eye. It is an essential tool for ophthalmologists and optometrists, primarily used to calculate the power of an intraocular lens (IOL) to be implanted during cataract surgery. By utilizing high-frequency A-scan ultrasound, it provides critical axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and lens thickness (LT) measurements.

This device, identified as SLATE SCAN from the CARE GROUP (SL No. 009, Product #14), represents a reliable and user-friendly solution for modern clinical practice.

Key Features

1. High-Precision A-Scan Biometry:

   • Accurately measures the Axial Length of the eye, which is the most critical parameter for IOL power calculation.

   • Simultaneously measures Anterior Chamber Depth (ACD) and Lens Thickness (LT).

2. Advanced IOL Power Calculation:

   • Pre-loaded with multiple, modern IOL power calculation formulas (e.g., SRK/T, Hoffer Q, Holladay, Haigis).

   • Allows surgeons to compare results from different formulas for optimal post-operative refractive outcomes.

3. User-Friendly Interface:

   • Features an intuitive display and simple controls for efficient patient examination and data entry.

   • Easy-to-interpret A-scan waveforms ensure correct alignment and measurement acquisition.

4. Comprehensive Patient Data Management:

   • Allows storage of patient demographics and examination data.

   • Enables recall of patient records for follow-up visits and surgical planning.

5. High-Resolution Display:

   • Clear screen for viewing the ultrasound waveform and all measurement parameters simultaneously.

6. Durable and Portable Design:

   • Built for the demanding environment of a clinical setting.

   • Compact form factor suitable for various practice setups.
