SonoTrax 8MHz Doppler Probe

The SonoTrax 8MHz Doppler Probe is an additional waterproof Doppler probe for compatible SonoTrax Dopplers, generally used in vascular diagnostics. By offering a different ultrasound frequency to your original probe, it opens up the possibility of carrying out a broader range of diagnostics.

Which SonoTrax Dopplers Can This Probe Be Used With?

This probe is compatible with the following ultrasound Doppler devices:

• The SonoTrax Pro Fetal Doppler – supplied with a 2MHz probe as standard
• The SonoTrax Vascular Doppler – supplied with a 4MHz probe as standard

Which SonoTrax Probes Are Available?

There are three additional SonoTrax Doppler probes available for purchase:

• The SonoTrax 3MHz Doppler Probe – generally used to measure fetal heart rate
• The SonoTrax 5MHz Doppler Probe – generally used in vascular diagnosis
• The SonoTrax 8MHz Doppler Probe – generally used in vascular diagnosis

When Can This Doppler Probe Be Used?

This waterproof 8MHz probe is generally used in different forms of vascular diagnosis. It is the highest frequency ultrasound Doppler probe manufactured by SonoTrax.

Can This Probe Be Used to Determine Fetal Heart Rate?

This is not a probe which is used for determining fetal heart rate. For fetal diagnostics the 3MHz probe is most appropriate.

How Does an Ultrasound Doppler Work?

Ultrasound Dopplers measure blood flow by bouncing high-frequency ultrasound off of red blood cells. The Doppler Effect allows the device to produce an audio simulation of pulse rate, and to carry out other diagnostics. This is a non-invasive solution to performing these diagnostic tests.
