ARUS® – ROBOT ASSISTED
ULTRASOUND SCANNING
ARUS® is a robotic solution aimed at offering an efficient robot assisted ultrasound for scanning of pregnant women compatible with most ultrasound devices on the market.
This is accomplished by integrating cutting-edge technology, including advanced sensors and remote controllers with precise haptic feedback.
ARUS® IS AIMED AT PROTECTING STAFF AND PREVENTING INJURY
Eliminating strain on sonographers — no need for repetitive movements, sustained force, and awkward postures.
One sonographer workflows — reducing team fatigue and need for additional staff.
ENDING WORK-RELATED INJURIES IN SONOGRAPHY
Work-related musculoskeletal disorder (WRMSD) is a widespread issue in sonography — affecting over 90% of practitioners, primarily caused by the repetitive use of force, awkward arm and shoulder postures, and extended scanning sessions under physical strain.
THE IMPACT EXTENDS BEYOND THE INDIVIDUAL
When a sonographer is injured this results in a cascading cycle of injury and innefficiency within the department. The economic impact is significant driven by absenteeism, hiring, training and reduced throughput — with fewer scans performed per day.
