Embracing Efficiency with Core Imaging Ultrasound
Caroline Page, a board-certified internal medicine specialist based in Southern California, has dedicated over 10 years to mobile ultrasound, performing around 100 scans monthly. Her relationship with Core Imaging began during the pandemic when she sought a safer touch-screen option for patient care.
“I started working with Core back in the pandemic…so when I saw Core had this WiSonic, and I could wipe it down with alcohol between all the patients, it just made me feel better using it,” Caroline shares.
Dr. Page values the Clivia system for its user-friendly interface and functionality. “I really enjoy using the ultrasound that I have from Core. It's so easy to use because one of the hardest things with ultrasound is learning to use all the buttons… and this one, it's like an iPhone.”
The ultrasound has become the backbone of her business, allowing Dr. Page to diagnose challenging cases quickly. From a dog with a rubber piece lodged in its jejunum to identifying tumors invisible on X-rays, Core ultrasound technology consistently provides her with the answers needed to save lives.
One of Caroline's favorite features of Core Imaging ultrasound equipment is efficiency. The Clivia ultrasound's QR code feature allows her to instantly save time by transferring images to clients.
"It's so easy and efficient, and my clients love it as well because it has QR codes that I can hold my phone over and send them all the images right away."
Caroline emphasizes how crucial it is for veterinarians to embrace ultrasound as part of regular physical exams.
“It takes less than one minute, and you could get all that information and be like, ‘Oh, look, the gallbladder doesn't look right.’ You can start seeing so many things, and I think it should be used as part of a physical exam.”
Looking ahead, Caroline sees even greater potential in ultrasound technology. She believes that as machines become more affordable and easier to use, ultrasound will become as essential as the stethoscope in veterinary medicine.
