The ultrasound system's intuitive user interface offers specific anatomy measurements and annotations for enhanced productivity and pain-free patient exams. In addition, the system is controlled using a unique touch control panel, which helps to dramatically reduce the number of keystrokes required for image optimization. The Flex Focus 400MSK high-resolution 19-inch flat screen displays sharp 2D images with superb detail and contrast resolution, and the system is configurable with BK Medical's Power Pack option, a full back-up power solution providing plug-free imaging for up to four hours.
