The University Hospital of North Durham has purchased an Hitachi Aloka F75 Premier ultrasound system for fetal medicine and obstetrics.  Including real-time 3D, automated nuchal translucency measurements and an extensive transducer range, the platform will deliver state-of-the-art technology and functionality for high-risk patient ultrasound diagnosis.  “Image quality and ergonomics ensure the ProSound F75 is a technological leader in its field and a past history of excellent service and support underpinned the reason for selecting Hitachi Aloka as the system of choice,” says the company.
