Explaining an injury to a patient is always easier when they can actually visualize it. But with standard ultrasound, long anatomical structures\u2014like the Achilles tendon, quadriceps tendon, or hamstring muscle bellies\u2014rarely fit into a single frame. Showing a patient disjointed 4 cm windows or scrolling through a cine loop often leaves them trying to mentally assemble the pieces.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Clarius Panorama<\/strong> changes that. <\/strong>Available now with the release of Clarius App 13.1<\/a>, it turns one slow sweep into a single image of the full Achilles tendon, hamstrings, quadriceps tendon, or any structure longer than your linear scanner\u2019s footprint. You can show patients the whole structure, not just a slice of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many of the structures MSK clinicians assess with musculoskeletal ultrasound, such as the Achilles tendon, hamstrings, and quadriceps tendon, are longer than a single image. Until now, the options were to record a cine of the sweep or piece the anatomy together mentally. Both are difficult to document and explain to patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Extended field of view imaging has been standard on cart-based ultrasound systems for years. Clarius now brings Panorama to its wireless handheld scanners, enabling users to capture structures that are larger than a standard ultrasound image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Panorama runs as an imaging mode within your existing exam, so the workflow is familiar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n To acquire a new image, unfreeze and sweep again. Each unfreeze starts a new panorama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Better patient compliance and communication:<\/strong> When patients see their entire tendon\u2014with the tear, tendinopathy, or repair shown in relation to surrounding healthy tissue\u2014treatment plans and rehab restrictions make immediate sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Actionable documentation for referrals:<\/strong> Instead of attaching five separate still frames, a single panoramic image of a long tendon or muscle belly can be added directly to notes or referrals to physicians, surgeons, and physical therapists with unambiguous anatomical context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Objective progress tracking:<\/strong> Capturing the complete structure across serial visits lets you and your patient track healing, scar remodeling, and structural recovery over the course of rehabilitation<\/p>\n\n\n\n Clarius Panorama is available on the Clarius L7 HD3, L15 HD3, L20 HD3, <\/strong>and PAL HD3<\/strong>. It is included with Clarius Essentials and Clarius membership as part of Panoramic Imaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The next time a structure extends beyond your standard field of view, To see Panorama in action, watch the Clarius Classroom<\/a> walkthrough below.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow to Use Panorama Mode on Clarius Ultrasound<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
