Synovial Vascularity Ultrasound Assessment in Synovitis Diagnosis

Abnormal synovial vascularity (SV) is evident with the onset of joint inflammation. That Inflammation causes swelling, pain, and warmth of the synovial membrane, which is a layer of connective tissue that lines a joint, such as the hip, knee, ankle, or shoulder. Synovitis is caused by some types of arthritis and other diseases.

In most cases, treatments are geared to decrease inflammation, lessen swelling, and manage pain. A popular treatment for synovitis is steroid injections in the affected joints. 

To ensure an accurate Synovitis diagnosis, using ultrasound rays is highly recommended. Ultrasound, which uses high-frequency sound waves to create an image, is most useful at showing inflammation in tendons and the tissue that lines the joint, called the synovium.

To that end, different ultrasound devices are being used. Undoubtedly, a high-tech specialized device is needed if specialists intend to end with highly clear scan results.

The SIFULTRAS-7.1 Portable Color Doppler Ultrasound Scanner PW is one of those specialized devices with high-quality scan imagery.

The device provides different Imaging Mode: B, BB, M, CD, PWD, DirPwr, Pwr. It is also characterized with high-definition Multiple Color Doppler mode imaging. Thus, providing high-resolution imagery for cardiac, vascular access, and OB diagnostics.


 The SIFULTRAS-7.1 Can be equipped in addition with 3D and panoramic image processing for volume reconstruction, visualization, segmentation, and measurement.
The device can also install and run all applications with Microsoft, Windows, including patient management systems for better follow-up, as well as network tools to access PACS data.

With all these technologically advanced options, Synovitis patients can only guarantee accurate scan results, and so quick diagnosis and hopefully faster recovery.

Synovitis (joint inflammation) is one of the most widespread diseases among the elderly. Ultrasound scanning proved to be efficient enough in the diagnosis of such a problem. Among the various devices that can be used during the scan operation, The SIFULTRAS-7.1 Portable Color Doppler Ultrasound Scanner PW can be a very suitable option.
