[The design of a family of ultrasonic diagnostic units based on up-to-date computer technologies].
Small ultrasonic devices are now being used in medical practice. However, the vast majority of them represent designingly completed systems which cannot include additional soft- and hardwares to accumulate measurements and to set up databases, to make additional postprocessing, to transmit measurements along networks and telephone lines, etc. On the other hand, in our and foreign countries, work is under way in designing the systems of archiving and treating ultrasonic images, working places for a physician engaged in radiation diagnosis. But at the same time direct joining of ultrasonic equipment with standard computer facilities is impossible in many practical cases. To design ultrasonic devices by using Multimedia IBM PC technology which may integrate various informational media, such as display, sonic information, and textual data is one of the ways of solving this problem. With this, the hardwares of ultrasonic devices are realized in the construction of standard IBM PC modules. Sonomed ultrasonic devices may be considered to be alternatives of Multimedia IBM PC-based devices.
