Executive Summary
The Slate Scan Ultrasonic A-Scan Biometer from Care Group is a state-of-the-art, precision ophthalmic device designed for accurate and reliable biometery. It is an essential tool for ophthalmologists and optometrists for calculating the power of intraocular lenses (IOLs) required in cataract surgery. With its user-friendly interface and robust ultrasonic technology, the Slate Scan ensures superior patient outcomes by providing critical measurements of the eye’s axial length, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, and vitreous length.
This specific unit, bearing the serial number 017, represents a trusted and verified instrument within the Care Group product line.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
1. Core Measurement Capabilities:
-
Axial Length (AL):Â Precisely measures the length from the cornea to the retina, the most critical parameter for IOL power calculation.
-
Anterior Chamber Depth (ACD):Â Measures the depth of the chamber between the cornea and the iris.
-
Lens Thickness (LT):Â Measures the thickness of the natural crystalline lens.
-
Vitreous Length:Â Provides data on the depth of the vitreous chamber.
2. Advanced IOL Power Calculation:
-
Integrated IOL Formulas:Â Comes pre-loaded with all major IOL calculation formulas (e.g., SRK/T, Hoffer Q, Holladay 1 & 2, Haigis).
-
Customizable Constants:Â Allows surgeons to personalize A-constants and optimize outcomes based on their surgical technique and IOL model preferences.
-
Multiple IOL Selection:Â Capable of calculating and displaying power for multiple IOL models simultaneously for surgical planning.
3. High-Resolution Ultrasonic Technology:
-
Frequency:Â Utilizes a high-frequency (typically 10 MHz) ultrasound probe for detailed and accurate tissue differentiation.
-
Resolution:Â Offers high-resolution A-scan waveforms, allowing for clear identification of peaks corresponding to ocular structures (cornea, lens, retina).
-
Measurement Modes: Supports both Contact and Immersion techniques, providing flexibility to the practitioner based on patient condition and preferred methodology.
4. User-Friendly Interface & Data Management:
-
Intuitive Display:Â Features a clear, easy-to-read screen showing the A-scan waveform and numerical data side-by-side.
-
Simple Controls:Â Ergonomic keyboard and navigation for quick and efficient operation.
-
Data Storage:Â Built-in memory to store patient records, including measurement data and IOL calculations, for easy retrieval and tracking.
-
Printing Capability:Â Typically includes connectivity to a thermal printer for generating immediate, hard-copy reports for patient files or surgical reference.
5. Design & Build Quality:
-
Compact & Portable:Â Robust yet compact design suitable for any clinical or surgical setting.
-
Durable Construction:Â Built to withstand the demands of a busy practice.
-
Probe Ergonomics:Â Lightweight and ergonomic probe designed for patient comfort and practitioner ease-of-use.
