Pool House Equine chooses portable system that withstands the knocks of daily practice

The team at Pool House Equine Clinic demonstrated to His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales how ultrasound imaging capabilities are an essential part of practice, when he attended the opening of its purpose-built facility.

His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales has visited Pool House Equine Clinic to mark the opening of a purpose-built facility in Fradley, near Lichfield.

The multimillion pound centre will support the provision of advanced equine veterinary services and the practice has chosen a Fujifilm SonoSite Edge II portable ultrasound system to meet the needs of its growing business.

Senior partner Richard Stephenson said: “It was a great honour and pleasure to have His Royal Highness visit our new premises, and our staff eagerly anticipated meeting Prince Charles and showing him the wonderful facilities we now have.  Pool House is a well-known practice – we’ve been in existence for over 150 years – and we have developed a reputation as a specialist equine imaging centre with radiography, ultrasound and MRI capabilities.  The new facility has been designed to give us increased theatre capacity and stabling, and we needed an additional ultrasound system to match this expansion.”
