Innovations in Ultrasound Probe Training with 3-D Med Tools
Ultrasounds are a crucial clinical skill used in diagnosing a variety of health conditions in all different fields of medicine. From intensive care to everyday clinical practice, ultrasound technology has become more widely used than ever. And to ensure that ultrasound technicians get the best results, they need to receive the best possible training–which is where 3-D Med comes in.
3-D Med is a leading manufacturer and supplier of innovative training tools for healthcare professionals, offering simulation tools for an interactive and lifelike educational experience for healthcare professionals in a variety of fields and a range of expertise levels. We are also an authorized distributor of Kyoto Kagaku ultrasound training phantoms. These ultrasound training models offer as close to the real clinical experience as possible, without the ethical concerns, risk, and pressure of actual clinical experience.
Innovative Materials for More Realistic Models
One of the biggest challenges when it comes to simulation tools is creating realistic models that aren’t just anatomically correct, but also react to probing and clinical tools like the actual thing. The Kyoto Kagaku models that we distribute are made from flexible materials that simulate actual movements when tools physically interact with them. This helps provide a more realistic training environment and offers users a much more interactive experience regardless of the task itself.
Practice Multiple Skills on One Model
While 3-D Med and Kyoto Kagaku both manufacture models dedicated to one particular skill, many of our products allow the practice of multiple skills on the same model. That could be the use of one of the Kyoto Kagaku ultrasound probe models to identify different conditions, or the use of multiple different tools on one model, including an ultrasound probe. In the end, the benefits are often the same–more real-world practice, without the inherent risks and pressure of a real-world environment.
