The 2010 "Ultrasound: Waves of Change" report was the result of KLAS' effort to uncover answers to how ultrasound vendors are approaching the issues of size, penetration, and image quality as mobility becomes more urgent as patient care is brought to the bedside and areas beyond the walls of radiology. KLAS interviewed more than 200 health care providers regarding their ultrasound equipment and vendors. Given the numerous ultrasound products available on the market, research was limited to those units used primarily in general imaging.

"While no vendor has delivered the ultimate solution in ultrasound, a highly mobile unit packaged with deep image penetration and picture clarity, ZONARE has surprised many with its combination of compact size and wide range of functionality. The z.one is reliable, has good image quality, and is the most mobile solution in this study," said Emily Crane, lead author for the KLAS report. "Overall, the z.one is a flexible unit and makes its way into departments looking for a functional ultrasound capable of extreme mobility and ZONARE is being mentioned more and more in the same breath with GE, Philips, and Siemens."
