The Center For Fast Ultrasound Imaging has received a grant for 75 mio. DKK for the development of portable intuitive ultrasound scanners.
The project is a cooperation between research groups at DTU, the companies BK Medical and Meggitt, the Alexandra Institute and Copenhagen University Hospital.
”The project will radically improve the application possibilities of ultrasound by rethinking the technologies, so that the doctor or the nurse can carry the scanner with them in their pockets. They will be able to show high solution 4 dimensional images of the organs and their functions without time consuming adjustments and training” explains Professor Jørgen A. Jensen from Center for Fast Ultrasound Imaging.
