SonoScape E1 Review:
The Sonoscape E1 is a low-cost B/W, but supports P/W Doppler as an optional, portable ultrasound machine that adopts advanced ultrasound technologies. The same architecture is used for the SonoScape E2, but narrowing down its target market for low-cost B/W market and Veterinary clinics, the possible options are not limited as the Sonoscape E2. Based on flexible and stable Linux operation and interfaces, the SonoScape E1 can be maintained and updated by simple software updates. The SonoScape E1 is one of the most valuable devices for Veterinary application with specific animal body marks and image presets. Since the system architecture is the same as the SonoScape E2, the image performance with basic transducer options are the same. Its image resolution and pixel expression are good in near and mid field, but relatively far field below 12 Cm shows a limited performance. Color Doppler is not available, but the PW Doppler sensitivity is good and acceptable based on its positioning and price point.
