6. ZONESonographyTM Technology(ZST) will become the next industry
standard method of generating ultrasound images as it is overcoming
a number of the barriers of digital beamformation.
ZST is two generations ahead
of traditional digital beamformation
technology.

Variability of sound speed within
patients lead to lower detail and

25. Clinical Assessment: Cincinnati Children’s Hospital
As an international leader in improving child
health, Cincinnati Children’ s Hospital Medical
Center is one of the largest pediatric radiology
facilities in the country, performing more than
200,000 imaging procedures each year. Clinical
procedures and treatments pioneered at
Cincinnati Children’s are used throughout the
world. U.S. News & World Report has ranked
Cincinnati Children’ s the third best children’s
hospital in the nation in general pediatrics in its

31. Brian Coley Radiologist-in-Chief, Cincinnati Children’ s Hospital Medical Center
“In my experience, the highly mobile ZONARE ultrasound
system delivers premium pediatric imaging performance
in practical applications. Using the C10-3, C9-3, and C6-2
transducers, ZONARE provides consistently uniform
imaging at depth on neonates to difficult to image
teenagers, with color Doppler performance comparable to
our other premium systems” said Dr. Coley.
32. Clinical Assessment: Winnipeg’s Health Science Center
Winnipeg’s Health Science Centre is the largest
health care referral, teaching and research center
serving residents of Manitoba, Northwestern
Ontario and Nunavut and is one of the largest
facilities of its kind in Canada. The ultrasound
department conducts approximately 18,000
exams annually and is dedicated to providing
quality imaging using the most advanced
technology available.
36. Edward Lyons Professor and Past Chairman of Radiology, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology
“When imaging the liver in large patients with
ZONARE’s C6-2 and C4-1 probes, I feel that
the penetration and image quality is equivalent
to what I have seen on premium scanners
using similar probe technology,” said Dr. Lyons.
