[VIDEO] Why Dr. Pazmiño Chooses Clarius Ultrasound: Five Key Benefits for Plastic Surgery

Dr. Pat Pazmiño is nationally renowned for inventing new procedures that combine the latest techniques in aesthetic surgery with ultrasound, such as the ultraBBL™, for safe Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedures. A vocal fan of Clarius ultrasound, he recently sat down with us to discuss why he prefers to use and recommend Clarius for plastic surgery. Watch this 4-minute video or scroll for highlights.

1. AI-Powered Clarius Is Simple to Use for New and Experienced Users

One of the reservations that surgeons sometimes have about ultrasound is that they feel that it’s an unknown technology. They feel that there’s a big learning curve, and as surgeons, we just want to focus on the patient.”

“One of the strengths about the Clarius system is that it’s not just ultrasound, it’s smart ultrasound. It allows us to go ahead and use that technology to optimize the settings to get the best image possible so that way we can really focus. And I think that’s been one of the big strengths with the Clarius system, that with the artificial intelligence that they use in their software, it helps optimize the image. So that way surgeons, we can really focus on the patient, on the procedure, and not worry so much about playing with different settings, turning knobs, it really makes it much more effortless.”

2. Clarius Makes Learning Ultrasound Easier

Some surgeons find ultrasound intimidating; they don’t understand what they’re seeing. And Clarius has done an incredible job with the T-mode, which helps with education because for the first time in real time, you can actually see a color-coded image of what you’re looking at on the screen.”

“I have used the T-mode in training, and it really is eye-opening for the doctors because when they see it, it clicks. They finally understand what is on the other image, which can look like a TV full of static. But the T-mode really helps identify the anatomy and it really puts surgeons at ease.”

3. Clarius Tailors Its Systems for Specialty Applications

I consider Clarius a leader in medical imaging, especially for plastic surgeons. I think that they have a high-quality piece of equipment, but more importantly, the team is very responsive; they understand what our needs are, and they’ve really worked very diligently at meeting them. Years ago, I worked with Clarius to create the BBL mode, and that was the first time I had seen that happen in medical imaging. It was a mode specifically for a procedure that was designed to be performed with ultrasound. And because of that, it allows surgeons to do this safer, more effectively, and faster.”

“There are systems that are very expensive, fifty thousand to a hundred-thousand dollars. But none of them are portable and none of them have a great image. And those systems do not have the modes that specifically help us in surgery, help us identify and understand the images.”

4. I Can Carry Wireless Ultrasound Everywhere

A wireless system is very important for surgeons because number one, when I’m in the clinic, I can keep it in my pocket and I can pair it with my iPhone, with an iPad, so it goes everywhere with me. I can bring it up easily in the middle of a conversation with a patient, and it helps me get information so I can make decisions and start treating them.”

“Of course, there are some cart-based systems that have better image quality for certain applications. But the best ultrasound is the one that is with you and that you can use at any time. And I think that’s the strength of Clarius.”

5. I Can Enclose It in a Sterile Bag for Surgery

A wireless system is even more important in the operating room because in the operating room, we can put a Clarius wireless system completely into a sterile bag. And what that allows us to do for the first time, we can bring ultrasound onto the operative field. We can bring ultrasound into the OR, and it allows a surgeon for the first time to see under the skin while they are working.”
