The Ophthalmic A/B-Scan Ultrasound Biometer (Model A/B-Scan, brand New Vision) is a portable medical device that performs A-scan (axial length and biometric measurements) and B-scan (two-dimensional cross-sectional imaging) ultrasound for ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment planning.
A-scan provides one-dimensional axial measurements such as axial length used in IOL calculations. B-scan produces 2D cross-sectional images of the eye, useful for visualizing posterior segment structures when direct visualization is difficult.
The A-scan function measures axial length, which is a key input for IOL power calculations. Whether IOL power calculation software is included depends on the specific configuration—confirm with the supplier if built-in IOL formulas and calculation workflows are provided.
The device accepts 110V/220V electric power. It is designed to be portable for transport between clinical locations. Single gross weight is listed as 20.000 KG and package dimensions are 35 x 45 x 50 cm.
The unit features a high-resolution display with 1280 x 800 pixel resolution to provide clear imaging for both A- and B-scan modes.
The product carries CE quality certification and is listed as a Class I medical device.
Standard configurations often include A-scan and B-scan probes, probe cables, power cord, and basic accessories; exact contents vary by supplier. Confirm the supplied accessories and optional extras (e.g., printer, carrying case, disposable probe covers) with the vendor.
Follow the manufacturer's cleaning and disinfection instructions. In general, use manufacturer-approved disinfectant wipes or solutions, avoid immersing electronic components, and do not autoclave probes unless explicitly stated. Use single-use probe covers when appropriate.
Routine maintenance and periodic calibration are recommended to ensure measurement accuracy. Follow the user manual for cleaning and inspection schedules. Calibration or service should be performed by qualified technicians or authorized service centers; online technical support is available from the manufacturer.
The specification lists a shelf life of 1 year. Warranty terms are not specified in the listing—contact the seller or manufacturer for warranty duration, support packages, and return policies.
Connectivity options are not detailed in the provided specifications. Many modern units offer USB, network, or DICOM/CSV export capabilities; verify supported data export formats and connectivity options with the supplier.
The device is a CE-marked Class I medical device designed for ophthalmic use. Standard ultrasound safety practices should be followed. Contraindications or precautions (e.g., suspected open globe injury) should be reviewed in the device manual and clinical protocols—consult the device manual and clinical guidelines before use.
Yes. Proper operation and interpretation of A- and B-scan requires training in ophthalmic ultrasound. Manufacturers or distributors typically provide user manuals, training resources, or online technical support to assist new users.
It is intended for ophthalmology clinics and practices for eye examinations, aiding in diagnosis of cataracts, posterior segment conditions, and other ocular pathologies where axial measurements or ultrasound imaging are required.
