 Since
its inception, ultrasound technology has rapidly expanded
from its traditional roles in OB/GYN to penetrate many
other fields, including radiology and emergency medicine.
Today, physicians are using ultrasound to track blood
clots and diagnose the heart, making it the most versatile
imaging technology in modern medicine.
cVein™ is designed to work with an ultrasound machine
and provides significant added value to clinicians who
already have an ultrasound machine, while generating extra
incentive for those without to invest in one. The high
potential of ultrasound technology will translate into
increased sales for cVein™. |

Ultrasound machines
are easy for clinicians to use without specialized
medical training, making it ideal for environments
outside of hospitals. |

Smaller, portable ultrasound
machines are the only imaging devices that can work
with cVein™ at the point-of-care, where it
can provide the most benefit. Sales of these hand-carried
units are projected to grow to $330 million a year
by 2010. |

|
| |
Technology improvements and
increasing market penetration for ultrasound devices
are propelling an annual market growth rate of 6%.
This means that the installed base of ultrasound
machines is increasing, along with the demand for
ultrasound-related products. |
