Description
The Rosmed Ultrasound Transmission Coupling Gel is composed of a thick non-slip formula that is water-soluble, non-greasy and salt-free.
It does not irritate the skin nor damage ultrasound equipment.
Composition
Deionized Water, Carbomer, Triethanolamine, Monopropylene Glycol, Benzyl Alcohol (and) Methylisothiazolinone.
Uses
Ultrasound gel enables a tight bond between the skin and the probe or transducer, letting the waves transmit directly to the tissues beneath and to the parts that need to be imaged.
It is formulated to act as a coupling agent and reduce static.
In fact, the more gel, the better – thus why many radiologists giving the exam pile it on. Besides ultrasounds themselves, the gel is also used with a fetal Doppler, which can be employed to allow parents and doctors to listen to the heartbeat of an unborn child
