Bladder scanners

Purchase of 3 Bladder Scanners

Cost: £21,000

Description: Bladder scanners are ultrasound devices used to assess bladder volume and urinary retention. They work by emitting high-frequency sound waves that are reflected back from the bladder, allowing the device to create an image and estimate the amount of urine present. This non-invasive method helps our doctors to determine if a patient is fully emptying their bladder and can be used to avoid unnecessary catheterizations.
