Planmed Verity

Orthopedic Imaging

Planmed Verity detects subtle fracture lines that are often overlooked when using 2D X-ray imaging. In contrast to full-body CTs, this extremity scanner is distinguished by higher resolution, patient adaptability and lower radiation doses. Its design is welcoming and friendly with an individual touch. The device’s appearance is characterised by a teardrop-shaped imaging bore and the so-called “bite” in the outer rim, which makes patient positioning easier. The adjustable gantry, with its soft surface and various positioning options, moreover supports the comfortable position of the patient.

Color Doppler Diagnostic Ultrasound Imaging System

The DC-N3 colour Doppler diagnostic ultrasound imaging system is designed to meet the daily requirements of an interdisciplinary hospital environment. An impressive number of ten ultrasonic probes makes it easy to adjust to varying examination requirements.

The height-adjustable, swivelling operating panel is complemented by a 180-degree-rotatable LCD monitor which, in combination with the two-level foot rest, makes the system comfortable to use in any situation.

Glucometer

Many have dreamed of a painless, noninvasive glucose meter that wouldn't require a person with diabetes to have to prick their finger to get a reading. Grove instruments is close to having a technology ready that would solve this problem. This project was an exercise to imagine what the new meter would look like and how it would operate should the technology become available

This technology falls in the near-infrared region and only requires an individual to insert their finger into the device where a pad gently presses against the fingertip optically assessing the tissue in both the blood-filled and bloodless states. The device uses this information to calculate the blood glucose level. User’s are spared the trauma of pain, the neddlestick and bleeding.
